Description acceptable. On the site where this event had taken place, Chariton the Confessor established the Lavra of Douka, according to St. Helena. George Whitefield’s sermon on this event compares it to St. Michael and the dragon and points out that three responses during it reference Deuteronomy. During this event, one figure is asked to jump off the pinnacle of a temple. That figure is also asked to worship his interlocutor in return for (*) all the kingdoms of the world during this event. In this event, that figure replies “Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” One figure is asked to turn stones into bread in this event, which is commemorated during Lent. For 10 points, name this event in the Synoptic gospels where a figure fasting in the desert for 40 days and nights spoke with the Devil. ■END■
ANSWER: Temptation of Christ [accept descriptions such as Jesus being tempted in the desert for 40 days and nights or Jesus being tempted by the Devil; prompt on answers such as Jesus in the desert or Jesus meeting the Devil with “what occurred then?”]
