Mat 4:3 | MHM | STEP | v. 3 : And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. The devil tempted Jesus to use his power to satisfy his own hunger. He tried to make Jesus doubt his identity as God’s Son and to act independently from God’s will. But Jesus did not give in to this selfish temptation (Matthew 4:3 ).
