Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοὺς πωλοῦντας βόας καὶ πρόβατα καὶ περιστερὰς
the_‹ones› selling oxen and sheep and doves
These animals were used for sacrifices in the temple. People were buying animals in the temple courtyard in order to sacrifice them to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “those selling oxen and sheep and pigeons for people to sacrifice to God”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
κερματιστὰς
money-changers
Jewish authorities required people who wanted to buy animals for sacrifices in the temple to exchange their money for special money from the money changers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “people who exchanged money for special money approved for temple use”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καθημένους
sitting
The next verse makes it clear that these people are in the temple courtyard. That area was intended for worship and not for commerce. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “sitting in the temple courtyard that was intended for worship”
