Contextual Overview

¹From the baptism in Jordan Creek, Jesus rode out into the desert where the Spirit led him. ²He stayed there for forty days and was tempted by the devil. He hadn't eaten anything in all those days and he was very weak. ³That's when that old snake attacked. "If you're God's Boy, make you some bread out of these stones on the ground." ⁴Jesus said, "The Good Book says, 'Bread alone won't give you life.'" ⁵Then the devil took him up to a place where they could see all the countries in the world and said, ⁶"All you see has been given to me and I will give you all its pleasure, all its treasure. ⁷All you have to do is take a knee before me and kiss my boot." ⁸Jesus never batted an eye as he said, "The Good Book says, 'Kneel only before God and ride for him only!'" ⁹Then that old serpent took Jesus to the highest point of the main church and said, ¹⁰"If you're God's Boy, jump off here and let the angels catch you like your good book says they will.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when the devil had ended all the temptation,.... Or "all his temptations", as the Syriac version reads; not only the last mentioned, but all the rest, whether inward or outward, in a visible or in an invisible manner; whether during his forty days fast, or after he was an hungered, when he had tried every way, and all sorts of temptations with him; and when he had done this, "in", or "with all his power", as the Ethiopic version reads; "when he had done his utmost", and his best; and as the Persic version adds, "and profited nothing"; could not succeed, or get any advantage over him:

he departed from him for a season; till another opportunity should offer, or till that time should come, when would be the hour and power of darkness; and by means of one of his disciples, he should bruise his heel, and bring him to an accursed death;

John 14:30.

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 “tried” 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 “afterward” subjected to temptations by Satan, but no “particular” 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 “entangle him,” 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 “all” 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 “influence” or direction of the Spirit.

A fame - A report. See Matthew 4:24.
