3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·, command this stone to become bread.”
And the devil said to him: If thou be the Son of God, say to this stone that it be made bread.
4 Yeshua [Salvation] answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every d'var Elohim ·word of God·.’”
And Jesus answered him: It is written, that Man liveth not by bread alone, but by every word of God.
5 The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

7 If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours.”
If thou therefore wilt adore before me, all shall be thine.
8 Yeshua [Salvation] answered him, “Get behind me Satan [Adversary]! For it is written, ‘You shall worship MarYah [Master Yahweh] your God, and you shall serve him only.’”

12 Yeshua [Salvation] answering, said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt Yahweh your God.’”
And Jesus answering, said to him: It is said: Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

18 “The Ruach of MarYah [Spirit of Master Yahweh] is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed,
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me. Wherefore he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the contrite of heart,
19 and to proclaim the acceptable year of MarYah [Master Yahweh].”

And all gave testimony to him: and they wondered at the words of grace that proceeded from his mouth, and they said: Is not this the son of Joseph?
23 He said to them, “Doubtless you will tell me this parable, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done at Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], do also here in your hometown.’”
And he said to them: Doubtless you will say to me this similitude: Physician, heal thyself: as great things as we have heard done in Capharnaum, do also here in thy own country.
24 He said, “Most certainly I tell you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown.
And he said: Amen I say to you, that no prophet is accepted in his own country.

Saying: Let us alone, what have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the holy one of God.
