TEMPTING JESUS

This homily for the First Sunday of Lent is based onb Mark 1:12-15.

It’s the shortest version of three Gospel accounts about an important event in the life of the Lord at the beginning of his public ministry. While those of Matthew and Luke detail three specific temptations that Satan offers to Jesus, this account of Mark tell us only that he was tempted in the desert for forty days.
