Luke 4:12

Context
4:12 Jesus 1  answered him, 2  “It is said, ‘You are not to put the Lord your God to the test.’” 3 

1 tn Grk “And Jesus.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

2 tn Grk “Jesus, answering, said to him.” This is redundant in English and has been simplified to “Jesus answered him.”

3 sn A quotation from Deut 6:16 used by Jesus in reply to the devil. The point is that God’s faithfulness should not be put to the test, but is rather a given.
