Satan wanted Jesus to turn stones into bread, since Jesus was fasting. Jesus reminded Satan that man does not live by bread alone. The point was, you must feed your soul as well as your body, and if you have to pick, you save your immortal soul.

Could Jesus be tempted to commit sin?

Jesus actually was tempted, when he was living on this earth. It says in Matthew 4:1- Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. Jesus had been fasting in the desert for 40 days, then the devil came to him and said If you are really Jesus than turn those stones into bread. Jesus replied saying man shall not live on bread alone but by every word that comes from the mouth of the father. The devil tempts Him in other ways and still Jesus resisted it. Some people might say well if Jesus was tempted than he sinned and if he sinned then he couldn't be God. Being tempted isn't a sin, it's what you do with that temptation that makes it wrong.
