The Temptation of the Wilderness

Japanese: 荒野の誘惑 - あれののゆうわく
The Temptation of the Wilderness
The deeds of Jesus as told in Mark 1:12-13, Matthew 4:1-11, and Luke 4:1-13. According to these accounts, after Jesus' baptism, he was tempted by the devil in the wilderness for 40 days. Although the baptism by John the Baptist is one of the few historical facts known about Jesus, the "temptation in the wilderness" as a whole is an invention by the early Christian church. It was originally a short statement like Mark's account, but it was expanded in the course of tradition to include three temptations: (1) turning stones into bread, (2) jumping off the pinnacle of the temple to prove that he was the "son of God," and (3) worshiping the devil in exchange for earthly glory, and it is thought that it was then passed on to Matthew and Luke.

Japanese:
《マルコによる福音書》1章12~13節,《マタイによる福音書》4章1~11節,《ルカによる福音書》4章1~13節に伝えられるイエスの事跡。これらの記述によるとイエスは洗礼の後,荒野で40日間悪魔に試みられた。バプテスマのヨハネによる洗礼はイエスについて知りうる数少ない史実の一つであるが,〈荒野の誘惑〉は全体として原始キリスト教団による創作である。元来はマルコの記事のように短い言表であったが,伝承の過程で拡大され,(1)石をパンに変え,(2)神殿の頂上から飛び下りて〈神の子〉であることを証明する,(3)地上の栄華と引きかえに悪魔を拝む,という三つの誘惑を含むものとなった後,マタイとルカの手に渡ったと考えられる。
