Answer Details
Jesus drove away the money changers and pigeon-sellers from the Temple because they disrespected the house of God. According to the Bible, Jesus found the Temple being used as a marketplace rather than a house of prayer, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and sellers of doves, accusing them of turning his father's house into a den of thieves. Therefore, he drove them out of the Temple in order to restore its holiness and sanctity.
