Go away, Satan! Jesus rebukes him. "Go away" implies disgust. Satan is called by name and commanded to leave. Worship the Lord your God and serve only him! Jesus quotes Deuteronomy 6:13. This forbids worship of any other object than Jehovah, whether idols, false gods, church leaders, saints or angels. The first temptation was through hunger "What the sinful self desires"; the second through vanity and conceit "what people see and want"; the third through avid ambition "everything in this world that people are so proud of." (1 John 2:15-17.)
