The word “cords” used here is the Greek word, “schoinion”, which means “a cord or rope made of rushes.”
This homemade whip that Jesus is using is hardly a weapon! Nothing that would certainly compare to the Roman cat of nine tails in which Jesus was scourged with!
The whip that Jesus would have made out of these grass blades would have been firm enough to get the animal’s attention without harming them. As a matter of fact anyone in the ancient world who worked with herd animals, such as sheep or oxen, would have had a whip similar to the one Jesus made.
It was hardly a weapon. It was simply a tool used to move animals in a certain direction.

More than likely what happened is Jesus went in there using His whip that He had made from rushes to firmly smack the sheep and oxen on their rears, driving them out of the Temple (as opposed to in to the Temple since they were in the Court of the Gentiles), and the money changers went chasing after their livestock. Once they cleared out He started flipping over the tables, causing the money to spill out all over the place.

Why did you have to detail this lovely thread over foolish false accusations against God, Turncoat ? 😡🙎♀️

When he comes back and sees how his faith has been commercialized, with his corpse worn as jewelry, we shall see him take up the whip once again.

Jesus doesn't whip people, he floods and burns

It's not "worse", but it definitely isn't doing stupid petty human stuff like punching someone in the face or losing his temper in the heat of a moment 🙄
