Chapter 4
1Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
(Hebrew unavailable)
2where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
(Hebrew unavailable)
3The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
4But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
5Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
(Hebrew unavailable)
6“I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.
(Hebrew unavailable)
7So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
8But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
9Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.
(Hebrew unavailable)
10For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully,
(Hebrew unavailable)
11and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
12But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
13When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.

14Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.
(Hebrew unavailable)
15He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.
(Hebrew unavailable)
16Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,
(Hebrew unavailable)
17the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:
(Hebrew unavailable)
18“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,
(Hebrew unavailable)
19to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
20Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,
(Hebrew unavailable)
21and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
22All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.
(Hebrew unavailable)
23Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
24Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
(Hebrew unavailable)
25But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.
(Hebrew unavailable)
26Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.
(Hebrew unavailable)
27And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
28On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.
(Hebrew unavailable)
29They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.
(Hebrew unavailable)
30But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.
(Hebrew unavailable)
31Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.
(Hebrew unavailable)
32They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.
(Hebrew unavailable)
33In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,
(Hebrew unavailable)
34“Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
(Hebrew unavailable)
35But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.
(Hebrew unavailable)
36All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
(Hebrew unavailable)
37And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.
(Hebrew unavailable)
38After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,
(Hebrew unavailable)

(Hebrew unavailable)
40At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.

41Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.
(Hebrew unavailable)
42At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.
(Hebrew unavailable)
43But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
44And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
