Episode notes
Wilderness Temptation Mirrors Israel
- Jesus fasts 40 days in the wilderness and is tempted as his fast ends, echoing Israel's wilderness experience.
- He resists by answering with Scripture, showing mastery of context and truth over twisted promises.
Know Scripture Context Rigorously
- Study the whole Bible so you can spot twisted uses of Scripture by the enemy.
- Knowing context prevents being seduced by verses pulled out of their intended meaning.
Jesus Reverses Israel's Failures
- Jesus' three temptations reverse Israel's failures in the wilderness: flesh, eyes, and pride.
- Because he succeeds where Israel failed, he can fully relate to human temptation and defeat it for us.
