3384.— Satan a Person

By Editor

Kindly explain Matt. 4:1-11. Are we to understand that Satan was actually present? P.

Certainly. Jesus was really present; why was not His adversary? Satan pointed to the stones, carried our Lord to a pinnacle of the temple, took Him into an exceedingly high mountain. The devil "came" to Him there in the wilderness, and after the fierce temptation, then "the devil leaveth Him." It was a crisis in Satan's affairs, and he was personally present.
