Matthew 4

Satan Tempts Jesus

1Then #Matt. 4:1–11; Mark 1:12; Luke 4:1Jesus was led up by #Ezek. 3:14; Acts 8:39the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”

4But He answered and said, “It is written, #Deut. 8:3‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”

5Then the devil took Him up #Neh. 11:1, 18; Dan. 9:24; Matt. 27:53into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:

#Ps. 91:11‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’

and,

#Ps. 91:12‘In their hands they shall bear you up,

Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”

7Jesus said to him, “It is written again, #Deut. 6:16‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ ”

8Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and #(Matt. 16:26; 1 John 2:15–17)showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”

10Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, #Deut. 6:13; 10:20; Josh. 24:14‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

11Then the devil #(James 4:7)left Him, and behold, #Matt. 26:53; Luke 22:43; (Heb. 1:14)angels came and ministered to Him.

Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry

12#Matt. 14:3; Mark 1:14; Luke 3:20; John 4:43Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee. 13And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:

15“The#Is. 9:1, 2 land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,

By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,

Galilee of the Gentiles:

16#Is. 42:7; Luke 2:32The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light,

And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death

Light has dawned.”

17#Mark 1:14, 15From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, #Matt. 3:2; 10:7“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Four Fishermen Called as Disciples

18#Matt. 4:18–22; Mark 1:16–20; Luke 5:2–11; John 1:40–42And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon #Matt. 10:2; 16:18; John 1:40–42called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and #Luke 5:10I will make you fishers of men.” 20#Matt. 19:27; Mark 10:28They immediately left their nets and followed Him.

21#Mark 1:19Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, 22and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.

Jesus Heals a Great Multitude

23And Jesus went about all Galilee, #Ps. 22:22; Matt. 9:35; Mark 1:21; 6:2; 10:1; Luke 4:15; 6:6; 13:10; John 6:59; 18:20teaching in their synagogues, preaching #(Matt. 24:14); Mark 1:14; Luke 4:43; 8:1; 16:16the gospel of the kingdom, #Mark 1:34; Luke 4:40; 7:21; Acts 10:38and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they #Mark 1:32, 33; Luke 4:40brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. 25#Matt. 5:1; 8:1, 18; Mark 3:7, 8Great multitudes followed Him—from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
