The Temptations
of Jesus
The temptations of Jesus recorded in
Matthew 4:1–11 are among the most significant events in His earthly
ministry. They reveal that our Savior faced real struggles with Satan,
not as an untouchable divine being immune to human weakness, but as the
Son of God who felt hunger, fatigue, and pressure. Hebrews 4:15 assures
us that Jesus was tempted in all points as we are, yet without sin. His
victory brings us hope, not just by example, but by offering us the
power to overcome. By examining how Jesus responded, we learn how to
resist the devil, trust in God’s Word, and remain faithful when trials
arise. |
