Jesus ate nothing during that time, and when those days were ended, he was very hungry. 3 The devil said to Jesus, "If you are the Son of God, tell this rock to become bread." 4 Jesus answered, "It is written in the Scriptures: ‘A person does not live on bread alone.'" 5 Then the devil took Jesus and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant. 6 The devil said to Jesus, "I will give you all these kingdoms and all their power and glory. It has all been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish. 7 If you worship me, then it will all be yours." 8 Jesus answered, "It is written in the Scriptures: ‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.'" 9 Then the devil led Jesus to Jerusalem and put him on a high place of the Temple. He said to Jesus, "If you are the Son of God, jump down. 10 It is written in the Scriptures: ‘He has put his angels in charge of you to watch over you.' Psalm 91:11

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
On the temptation of Jesus, see the notes at Matthew 4:1-11.
Luke 4:2
Being forty days tempted - That is, through forty days he was âtriedâ in various ways by the devil. The temptations, however, which are recorded by Matthew and Luke did not take place until the forty days were finished. See Matthew 4:2-3.
He did eat nothing - He was sustained by the power of God during this season of extraordinary fasting.
Luke 4:13
Departed for a season - For a time. From this it appears that our Saviour was âafterwardâ subjected to temptations by Satan, but no âparticularâ temptations are recorded after this. From John 14:30, it seems that the devil tried or tempted him in the agony in Gethsemane. Compare the notes at Hebrews 12:4. It is more than probable, also, that Satan did much to excite the Pharisees and Sadducees to endeavor to âentangle him,â and the priests and rulers to oppose him; yet out of all his temptations God delivered him; and so he will make a way to escape for âallâ that are tempted, and will not suffer them to be tempted above that which they are able to bear, 1 Corinthians 10:13.
Luke 4:14
In the power of the Spirit - By the âinfluenceâ or direction of the Spirit.
A fame - A report. See Matthew 4:24.
