Then said Jesus unto him, 1Avoid Satan, &c.] Now followeth the answer of our Saviour Christ. And first in Christs answer mark, in propounding of it he useth first a speech of indignation and of defiance to the Devil and his offer: Avoid Satan: as though Christ should have said: I have heard thee blaspheme both me and my Father, & have thus long suffered thee, but I will suffer thee no longer, get thee hence Satan, I will not vouchsafe to answer to thy temptations any more.

Mark here in the answer of Christ, that he was content to endure the devils temptations and reproaches, which concerned his own person: but when he is so bold to blaspheme God his Father, he can endure him no longer. Now when he makes challenge and claims title to all the kingdoms of the world, as though he were Lord of them, and could bestow them at his pleasure, therein he blasphemed God his Father.
