When the history begins[edit]

Given that I know the term "money changers" from the story of Jesus and the Temple, I find it curious that the history section of this article begins in the Middle Ages. —Largo Plazo (talk) 20:36, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Images creating negative connotation[edit]

The first image is of a Jew moneychanger. The image below it is of Jesus, apparently casting out money changers in Jerusalem. The 2 images, as they appear, create a religious, negative, connotation. Also, both images are not relevant to illustrate the profession (money changer). I propose to remove images. - 26 May 2021.

I see no reason why the caption for the first image should identify the moneychanger as Jewish, whether he is or not. As for the second, Jesus throwing out the moneychangers is, to the best of my knowledge, the classic example in world literature of moneychangers, and it illustrates head-on the beginning of the History section. Yes, the moneychangers were Jewish, that's just a fact of the situation, but there's nothing in the scene that's derogatory toward Jews. Largoplazo (talk) 16:41, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
