マタイの福音書 4:8 JCB

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 4:1-11

Tempted by the Devil Matthew 4:1-11 Then marks the close connection between the heavenly voice of the baptism and the fiery ordeal of the forty days. Notice that temptation is not in itself sin; only when the evil suggestions of the tempter are harbored do they become sin. Notice also that all around us is a dark region of evil, out of which temptations arise. Whenever you have received a conspicuous revelation, you may expect a time of testing. This is God’s way of rooting the trees in the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 4:1-25

"Then." After the heavens opened, hell is opened. The King must not only be in perfect harmony with the order and beauty of the heavens, He must face all the disorder and ugliness of the abyss. Goodness at its highest He knows, and is; evil at its lowest He must face, and overcome. And so in the wilderness He stands as humanity's representative between the two, responding to the one and refusing the other. How gloriously He won the battle and bruised the head of the serpent. Every vulnerable... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Matthew 4:1-11

The Temptation (No. 2) Matthew 4:1-11 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. "THEN" the word holds our attention. "Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil." The word "then" carries with it a most suggestive meaning. (1) It carries us back to the baptismal scene. It shows the Saviour coming to John and requesting baptism. It reveals the voice of God, immediately after the baptism, as He proclaims, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." The baptism of the... read more

THE PATH TO VICTORY‘Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain.… All these things will I give Thee, if Thou wilt fall down and worship me.… Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.’ Matthew 4:8-2 Samuel : What is the significance of this temptation? Whence did it derive its force? I. The recognition of Divine sonship.—We shall gain a clearer understanding of what this mysterious trial was, if we look back for a moment to those which preceded it.... read more

Analysis (4:1-11). a Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil, and when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he afterward hungered (Matthew 4:1-2). b And the Tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread” (Matthew 4:3). c But he answered and said, “It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). b Then the devil... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 4:1-25

SECTION 2. THE BIRTH AND RISE OF JESUS THE MESSIAH (THE CHRIST) (1:18-4:25). In this section, following the introduction, Matthew reveals the greatness of Jesus the Christ. He will now describe the unique birth of Jesus, the homage paid to Him by important Gentiles, His exile and protection in Egypt followed by His subsequent bringing forth out of Egypt to reside in lowly Nazareth, His being drenched with the Holy Spirit as God’s beloved Son and Servant, His temptations in the wilderness which... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 4:8

‘Again, the devil takes him to an extremely high mountain, and shows him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them.’ Matthew then describes last the temptation that centred on what he has described in the previous chapters, the kingship of Jesus. In vision, or in His mind’s eye, Satan takes Jesus onto ‘a very high mountain’ from which all the kingdoms of the world can be seen. Even granted that this meant all the kingdoms of the known world, or of the Roman world, this was not... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 4:1-11

Matthew 4:1-1 Kings : . The Temptation ( Mark 1:12 f.*, Luke 4:1-1 Chronicles : *).— Jesus’ sudden recognition of His Sonship or Messiah-ship and of the responsibility thus laid upon Him, found natural expression in His retirement into solitude. In the dreary wilderness of Judæ a (p. 31), which overhangs the north of the Dead Sea, He grapples with the problem of what is involved in being God’ s Son, of how the Messiah must do God’ s will. The narrative is taken (as in Lk.) from Q. There are... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 4:8-9

This is the third temptation by which the tempter solicits our Saviour to sin, and of all other the most impudent. For what can be more impudent than for the creature to expect a homage to him from him who was his Creator. What mountain this was, and how our Saviour was taken up into it, are things not revealed, and of very little concern for us to know. The text tells us it was exceeding high, yet not high enough from whence one kingdom could be seen in the extent of it. It is therefore most... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 4:1-11

CRITICAL NOTESTHE TEMPTATION OF JESUS—GENERAL REMARKSThere is only one way of understanding the narrative, viz. as the history of a real occurrence, of an actual temptation of our Lord by the devil as a person. Such a history it is clearly the intention of the Evangelist to give; and the only difficulty which this interpretation has, peculiar to itself, is that it presupposes two things, which are also presupposed throughout the rest of Scripture: the possibility of the supernatural, and the... read more
