The wilderness temptations of Jesus were unique to Him in that Satan wanted Him to use His deity to bypass His humanity. This would have disqualified Him as our High Priest. Jesus would not take a shortcut to His glory.

“ Temptation Narrative ” Satan wanted to use Jesusβs diety to overcome His humanity. If Jesus had not suffered as we suffer, He could not have represented us. But He became one of us while still retaining 100% of his diety. Jesus, the last Adam, succeeded where the first Adam failed. Satan tried to offer Jesus an easy way out, but we would have all died. Jesus took the hard path so that we could live. He fought temptation with the armor of God.
