‘See the temptations that challenged the Saviour’(Luke 4:1-13)

When Luke records how Jesus faced temptation in the desert in Luke 4:1-13, it’s clear that he wants us to compare Jesus with Adam. Given that Luke had just traced the genealogy of Jesus back to Adam, it is logical that Luke wanted his readers to understand that Jesus hadf to be tempted just as Adam was in Genesis 3:1-13. But this time, armed with Scripture from the book of Deuteronomy, Jesus did not fall into temptation and disobedience like Adam did, proving Himself to be the Son of Adam and the Son of God!
