Jesus didn't destroy the temple, but he turned over the tables of the money changers and drove the merchants out of the temple. Saying: My Father's house is to be a house of prayer. But you have turned it into a den of thieves.

I love this song, especially the drums in it. During Lollapalooza, Glen at one point just sort of shouted an incomprehensible chant during the chorus that reminded me of some native American singers. I think they might have been inspired by Native American drumming when they did the percussion for this song, and I think Glen was sort of channeling that (although, Native American singers are actually singing in a recognizable language and not just sort of chanting nonsense like Glen does.)
