Footnotes

  1. 8 The order of the second and third temptations differs in Luke’s account (4:5–12) from the order given in Matthew.
  2. 9 Grk “and he stood him.”
  3. 10 The highest point of the temple probably refers to the point on the temple’s southeast corner where it looms directly over a cliff some 450 ft (135 m) high. However, some have suggested the reference could be to the temple’s high gate.
