The Temptation of Jesus

(Mat 4:1–11; Mar 1:12, 13 )

Luk 4:1Yeshua, full of the Ruach HaKodesh, returned from the Yarden, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness

Luk 4:2for forty days, being tempted by the devil. He ate nothing in those days. Afterward, when they were completed, he was hungry.

Luk 4:3

Luk 4:3The devil said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread."

Luk 4:4

Luk 4:4Yeshua answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'"

Luk 4:5

Luk 4:5The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

Luk 4:6

Luk 4:6The devil said to him, "I will give you all this authority, and their glory, for it has been delivered to me; and I give it to whomever I want.

Luk 4:7

Luk 4:7If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours."

Luk 4:8

Luk 4:8Yeshua answered him, "Get behind me Hasatan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.'"

Luk 4:9

Luk 4:9He led him to Yerushalayim, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here,

Luk 4:10

Luk 4:10for it is written, 'He will give his angels charge concerning you, to guard you;'

Luk 4:11

Luk 4:11and, 'On their hands they will bear you up, Lest perhaps you dash your foot against a stone.'"

Luk 4:12

Luk 4:12Yeshua answering, said to him, "It has been said, 'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'"

Luk 4:13

Luk 4:18

Luk 4:18"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, Because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim release to the captives, Recovering of sight to the blind, To deliver those who are crushed,

Luk 4:19

Luk 4:19And to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
