Jesus refused to worship the devil to receive “all the kingdoms of the world” because the Old Testament wrote only God must be worshipped. That is, someone cannot worship God and worship someone else at the same time. Jesus noted this well by adding the word “only”(μόνος/g3441) when he repeated the Old Testament scripture (see: Deuteronomy 6:13). -See: Worship +See: [Worship](../articles/worship.md) ### How did the devil use Psalm 91 in a wrong way? The devil used Psalm 91 in a wrong way by telling Jesus that God protected people from harm even when they tested God. The devil tried to convince Jesus that he was able to throw himself down from the “highest point of the temple.” However, the writer of Psalm 91 wrote about someone who trusted God, even when things were difficult. He also wrote about how God promised to care for people who trusted in him. However, the devil wanted to use this Psalm in a different way. He wanted Jesus to think God would help him, even if Jesus tested God or rejected the things that God said. However, God did not promise to protect those who rejected him in Psalm 91. -See: Psalm; Temple; [Satan (The Devil)](../articles/satan.md) +See: [Psalm](../articles/psalm.md); [Temple](../articles/temple.md); [Satan (The Devil)](../articles/satan.md) ### Why was Jesus not willing to test God? @@ -115,7 +115,7 @@ See Map: Galilee Jesus stood to read the scroll in the synagogue because when someone read scripture they needed to stand.
