In
the Wilderness
Then Jesus was led out into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be
tempted there by the Devil. For forty days and forty nights he ate nothing
and became very hungry. Then the Devil came and said to him, "If you
are the Son of God, change these stones into loaves of bread." But Jesus told him,
"No! The Scriptures say, `People need more than bread for their life; they must feed on every word of God.'"
Matthew 4:1-4
