Mattithyahu (Matthew) 4
4
1Then יהושע was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tried by the devil.
2And after having fasted forty days and forty nights, He was hungry.
3And the trier came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of Elohim, command that these stones become bread.”
4But He answering, said, “It has been written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of יהוה.’ ”# Deu. 8:3
5Then the devil took Him up into the set-apart city, set Him on the edge of the Set-apart Place,
6and said to Him, “If You are the Son of Elohim, throw Yourself down. For it has been written, ‘He shall command His messengers concerning you,’# Psa. 91:11 and, ‘In their hands they shall bear you up, so that you do not dash your foot against a stone.’ ”# Psa. 91:12
7יהושע said to him, “It has also been written, ‘You shall not try יהוה your Elohim.’ ”# Deu. 6:16
8Again, the devil took Him up on a very high mountain, and showed Him all the reigns of the world, and their esteem,
9and said to Him, “All these I shall give You if You fall down and worship me.”
10Then יהושע said to him, “Go, Satan! For it has been written, ‘You shall worship יהוה your Elohim, and Him alone you shall serve.’ ”# Deu. 6:13
11Then the devil left Him, and see, messengers came and attended Him.
12And יהושע, having heard that Yoḥanan had been put in prison, withdrew into Galil.
13And leaving Natsareth, He came and dwelt in Kephar Naḥum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zeḇulun and Naphtali,
14to fill what was spoken by Yeshayahu the prophet, saying,
15“Land of Zeḇulun and land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Yardĕn, Galil of the nations –
16the people who sat in darkness saw a great light, and upon those who sat in the land and shadow of death, light arose to them.”# Isa. 9:1, 2
17From that time יהושע began to proclaim and to say, “Repent, for the reign of the heavens has drawn near.”
18And יהושע, walking by the Sea of Galil, saw two brothers, Shim‛on called Kĕpha, and Andri his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
19And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I shall make you fishers of men.”
20And immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
21And going on from there, He saw two other brothers, Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zaḇdai, and Yoḥanan his brother, in the boat with Zaḇdai their father, mending their nets. And He called them,
22and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
23And יהושע went about all Galil, teaching in their congregations, and proclaiming the Good News of the reign, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.
24And news about Him went out into all Suria. And they brought to Him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and pains, and those who were demon-possessed, and epileptics, and paralytics. And He healed them.
25And large crowds – from Galil, and Dekapolis, and Yerushalayim, and Yehuḏah, and beyond the Yardĕn – followed Him.

Satan Tempts Jesus
1Then #Matt. 4:1–11; Mark 1:12; Luke 4:1Jesus was led up by #Ezek. 3:14; Acts 8:39the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4But He answered and said, “It is written, #Deut. 8:3‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
5Then the devil took Him up #Neh. 11:1, 18; Dan. 9:24; Matt. 27:53into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
#Ps. 91:11‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’
and,
#Ps. 91:12‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
7Jesus said to him, “It is written again, #Deut. 6:16‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ ”
8Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and #(Matt. 16:26; 1 John 2:15–17)showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, #Deut. 6:13; 10:20; Josh. 24:14‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”
11Then the devil #(James 4:7)left Him, and behold, #Matt. 26:53; Luke 22:43; (Heb. 1:14)angels came and ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry
12#Matt. 14:3; Mark 1:14; Luke 3:20; John 4:43Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee. 13And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
15“The#Is. 9:1, 2 land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles:
16#Is. 42:7; Luke 2:32The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light,
And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death
Light has dawned.”
17#Mark 1:14, 15From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, #Matt. 3:2; 10:7“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples
18#Matt. 4:18–22; Mark 1:16–20; Luke 5:2–11; John 1:40–42And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon #Matt. 10:2; 16:18; John 1:40–42called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and #Luke 5:10I will make you fishers of men.” 20#Matt. 19:27; Mark 10:28They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
21#Mark 1:19Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, 22and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
Jesus Heals a Great Multitude
23And Jesus went about all Galilee, #Ps. 22:22; Matt. 9:35; Mark 1:21; 6:2; 10:1; Luke 4:15; 6:6; 13:10; John 6:59; 18:20teaching in their synagogues, preaching #(Matt. 24:14); Mark 1:14; Luke 4:43; 8:1; 16:16the gospel of the kingdom, #Mark 1:34; Luke 4:40; 7:21; Acts 10:38and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they #Mark 1:32, 33; Luke 4:40brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. 25#Matt. 5:1; 8:1, 18; Mark 3:7, 8Great multitudes followed Him—from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
