SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:8
Y me dolió en gran manera; y eché todas las alhajas de la casa de Tobías fuera de la cámara;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Nehemiah 13:8
Verse 8. I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobiah] He acted as Jesus Christ did when he found the courts of the Lord's house profaned: He overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of those who sold doves.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 8. And it grieved me sore , etc.] That such a sacred place should be converted to common use, and to that of an Heathen, and of an enemy to the Jews and their religion: therefore I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobiah out of the chamber ; as being chief magistrate, and acting by commission under the king of Persia, and to regulate everything amiss, according to the Jewish laws, as well as those of the king, his power being, no doubt, as large as Ezra’s, ( Ezra 7:25,26), by “household stuff” is meant what is movable in the house, as chairs, tables, vessels for dressing, caring, drinking, etc. there are various opinions about this with the ancients f85 .
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-9 - Israel was a peculiar people, and not to mingle with the nations. Se the benefit of publicly reading the word of God; when it is dul attended to, it discovers to us sin and duty, good and evil, and show wherein we have erred. We profit, when we are thus wrought upon to separate from evil. Those that would drive sin out of their hearts, the living temples, must throw out its household stuff, and all the provision made for it; and take away all the things that are the foo and fuel of lust; this is really to mortify it. When sin is cast out of the heart by repentance, let the blood of Christ be applied to it by faith, then let it be furnished with the graces of God's Spirit, for every good work.
