1 Then was Iesus ledd awaye of the spirite into wildernes to be tempted of the devyll. 2 And when he had fasted fourtye dayes and fourtye nightes he was afterward an hungred. 3 Then came to hym the tempter and sayde: yf thou be the sonne of God commaunde that these stones be made breed. 4 He answered and sayde: that is wrytten man shall not lyve by brede onlye but by every worde that proceadeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devyll tooke hym vp into the holy cite and set hym on a pynacle of the temple 6 and sayd vnto hym: yf thou be the sonne of God cast thy sylfe doune. For it is wrytte he shall geve his angels charge over the and with their handes they shall holde that vp that thou dashe not thy fote agaynst a stone. 7 And Iesus sayde to hym it ys wrytten also: Thou shalt not tempte thy Lorde God. 8 The devyll toke hym vp agayne and ledde hym in to an excedynge hye mountayne and shewed hym all the kyngdomes of the worlde and all the glorie of them 9 And sayde to hym: all these will I geue the if thou wilt faull doune and worship me. 10 Then sayde Iesus vnto hym.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 4:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XIII)

    Then. When? After the descent of the Spirit, after the voice that was borne from above, and said, "This is My Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." And what was marvellous, it was of the Holy Spirit; for this, he here saith, led Him up.

    For, when tempting Him, he said, "If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread."

    … two societies of angels,--the one enjoying God, the other swelling with pride; the one to whom it is said, "Praise ye Him, all His angels," the other whose prince says, "All these things will I give Thee if Thou wilt fall down and worship me;" the one blazing with the holy love of God, the other reeking with the unclean …

    Thus, after He was an hungered, it is said, "The tempter came, and said unto Him, If Thou be Son of God, command that these stones be made bread."

    If the Master Himself followed the right time in due order, ought we, His servants, to venture out of order?
