Tentación de Jesús

Lucas 4:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 4:1

And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost
The Spirit of God having descended on him at his baptism, and afresh anointed, and filled his human nature with his gifts, whereby, as man, he was abundantly furnished for the great work of the public ministry, he was just about to enter upon; yet must first go through a series of temptations, and which, through the fulness of the Holy Spirit in him, he was sufficiently fortified against.

Returned from Jordan;
where he came, and had been with John, and was baptized by him; which, when over, he went back from the same side of Jordan, to which he came:

and was led by the Spirit;
the same Spirit, or Holy Ghost he was full of; (See Gill on Matthew 4:1)

into the wilderness;
of Judea, which lay near Jordan, and where John had been preaching and baptizing, namely, in the habitable: part of it: but this was that part, which was uninhabited by men, and was infested with wild beasts, and where Christ could neither have the comfort and benefit of human society, nor any thing for the sustenance of life, and where he was exposed to the utmost danger; and so in circumstances very opportune and favourable for Satan to ply him with his temptations, for which purpose he was led thither.

Lucas 4:1 In-Context

1 Jesús, lleno del Espíritu Santo, volvió del Jordán y fue llevado por el Espíritu al desierto.

2 Allí estuvo cuarenta días y fue tentado por el diablo. No comió nada durante esos días, pasados los cuales tuvo hambre.

3 —Si eres el Hijo de Dios —le propuso el diablo—, dile a esta piedra que se convierta en pan.

4 Jesús le respondió:—Escrito está: “No solo de pan vive el hombre”.

5 Entonces el diablo lo llevó a un lugar alto y le mostró en un instante todos los reinos del mundo.
