A SENSE OF THE HOLY
After He purified it, our Lord left the temple because the people had become irreverent. In religion it is possible for irreverence to grow. There can be a want of the sense of holy.

They would not go to the home of a visiting duke the way they come to see the Lord God of Hosts.
