Can't He just turn miscreants into newts or something ?

Or how about a more Biblical turn of phrase, couldn't Jesus have commanded the earth to vomit out the money changers ??

THAT would have got their attention !!!

Like the tale of Jesus' arrest in a garden, the story is not believable. For instance, cutting off someone's ear off with an ancient sword would, in and of itself, be a miracle. Swords in that time were not sharp, and the angle of attack would be impossible for anyone to make.

But, such makes for a good story, for believers at least!
