Matthew 4:8-10: 3rd Temptation

• Matthew 4:5 (ASV)

---

"The placement of Jesus on the mountain of temptation,
where He refused to acknowledge the devil's 'authority,' is
deliberately juxtaposed to the mountain (Matt. 28:16) of
'the great commission,' on which He later affirmed that all
'authority' in heaven and on earth had been granted to Him
(28:18).
