Best Answer

The three temptations were:

1.) To change the stone to bread to feed Himself.

2.) To worship Satan and receive all the kingdoms of the world from Satan.

3.) To throw Himself off of the highest point of the Temple and force the God and the angels to rescue Him.

Jesus' responses to Satan's three temptations:

1.) Man shall not live by bread alone.

2.) Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God alone.

3.) Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the test.

Jesus was tempted in all points, but mainly in Matthew 4:1-11 Jesus was tempted in "the lust of the flesh" (vv 2-3), "the lust of the eyes "(vv 8-9), and "the pride of life" (vv5-6) If you read the account perhaps you will see it.

All men are tempted in these three ways also.

Luke 4: 1-13 (New King James Version)

Satan Tempts Jesus

1 Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 being tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward, when they had ended, He was hungry.

3 And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread."

4 But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

5 Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, showed Him[ all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And the devil said to Him, "All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. 7 Therefore, if You will worship before me, all will be Yours."

8 And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! [For] it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.'"

9 Then he brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:

'He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you,'11 and,In their hands they shall bear you up,lest you dash your foot against a stone".12 And Jesus answered and said to him, "It has been said, 'You shall not tempt the LORD your God.'"13 Now when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time

2 to fall from the cliff and that angels would protect him.

A:

The three temptations in the wilderness are not in the original New Testament gospel, the Gospel of Mark, but came into the Gospels of Matthew and Luke from the hypothetical 'Q' document. Although using the same source document, the two authors recorded two of The Temptations in different sequences. Matthew's Gospel says that the devil first tried to tempt Jesus to turn a stone into bread, then took Jesus up to the pinnacle of the Temple in Jerusalem, and then to a high mountain in order to tempt him. Luke's Gospel says that the devil tried to tempt Jesus to turn a stone into bread, then took Jesus up to a high mountain in order to tempt him, and then to the pinnacle of the Temple in Jerusalem. There seems no doubt that, in spite of the different sequences, both authors copied these events from the same source as other material common to the two gospels but not found in Mark. This source, now known as the 'Q' document, was not yet in circulation when Mark's Gospel was written, around 70 CE.

What detail did Matthew leave out in recounting the arrest of Jesus?

We now know that Matthew's Gospel was substantially based on Mark's Gospel, which was written some ten to twenty years earlier. It follows Mark's account of the arrest of Jesus reasonably faithfully, with one omission - the young man who fled naked from the scene (Mark 14:51-52). On the other hand, Matthewprovides the additional information that Jesus told his supporters that, if he wanted, he could ask the Father to send twelve legions of angels to prevent his arrest.The young man in Mark's Gospel is an enigma. Some believe he was an allegory for the disciples, who deserted Jesus when danger faced them.
