What does the Bible say about Jesus being tempted?
Answered in 4 sources
The Bible indicates that Jesus was tempted in every way as we are, yet remained without sin (Hebrews 4:15).
The temptations of Jesus, as described in Scripture, highlight His complete identification with humanity's struggles. Satan arose against Him with all his might, presenting temptations that paralleled our own experiences. The Scripture in Luke 22:28 reminds us that Jesus faced the full spectrum of human temptation, even in His purity. Each temptation—doubt, presumption, and the allure of worldly power—demonstrates not only His struggle but His resolute fidelity to the will of God. Ultimately, these experiences affirm our Savior's ability to sympathize with our weaknesses, as He endured temptation without succumbing to sin.
