The Temptation
4Jesus returned from the Jordan full of the Holy Spirit and was led by the Spirit into the desert, 2where he was tempted by the Devil for 40 days. In all that time he ate nothing, so that he was hungry when it was over.
3The Devil said to him, “If you are God’s Son, order this stone to turn into bread.”
4*But Jesus answered, “The scripture says, ‘Human beings cannot live on bread alone.’ ”
