Matthew 4:4, 7, 10-11
Matthew 4:4 MSG
Jesus answered by quoting Deuteronomy: “It takes more than bread to stay alive. It takes a steady stream of words from God’s mouth.”
Matthew 4:7 MSG
Jesus countered with another citation from Deuteronomy: “Don’t you dare test the Lord your God.”
Matthew 4:10-11 MSG
Jesus’ refusal was curt: “Beat it, Satan!” He backed his rebuke with a third quotation from Deuteronomy: “Worship the Lord your God, and only him. Serve him with absolute single-heartedness.” The Test was over. The Devil left. And in his place, angels! Angels came and took care of Jesus’ needs.
