'Robbers' in the Bible

Jesus replied, "A man was once on his way down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell among robbers, who after both stripping and beating him went away, leaving him half dead.

"Which of those three seems to you to have acted like a fellow man to him who fell among the robbers?"

"It is written," He said, "'And My house shall be the House of Prayer,' but you have made it a robbers' cave."
