Context of Luke 4:7
5So he took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6The devil said to him, “I will give you their splendor and all this authority, because it has been given over to me, and I can give it to anyone I want. If you, then, will worship me, all will be yours.” 8And Jesus answered him, “It is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.” 9So he took him to Jerusalem, had him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here.
