15
The
Lord
God
took
the
man
and
put
him
in
the
garden of Eden to till it and keep it.
16
And
the
Lord
God
commanded
the
man,
‘You
may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
17
but
of
the
tree
of
the
knowledge
of
good
and
evil
you
shall
not
eat,
for
in
the
day
that
you
eat
of it you shall die.’
3
Now
the
serpent
was
more
crafty
than
any
other
wild
animal
that
the
Lord
God
had
made.
He
said
to
the
woman,
‘Did
God
say,
“You
shall
not
eat from any tree in the garden”?’
2
The
woman
said
to
the
serpent,
‘We
may
eat
of
the fruit of the trees in the garden;
3
but
God
said,
“You
shall
not
eat
of
the
fruit
of
the
tree
that
is
in
the
middle
of
the
garden,
nor
shall you touch it, or you shall die.” ’
4
But
the
serpent
said
to
the
woman,
‘You
will
not die;
5
for
God
knows
that
when
you
eat
of
it
your
eyes
will
be
opened,
and
you
will
be
like
God,
knowing good and evil.’
6
So
when
the
woman
saw
that
the
tree
was
good
for
food,
and
that
it
was
a
delight
to
the
eyes,
and
that
the
tree
was
to
be
desired
to
make
one
wise,
she
took
of
its
fruit
and
ate;
and
she
also
gave
some
to
her
husband,
who
was
with
her,
and he ate.
7
Then
the
eyes
of
both
were
opened,
and
they
knew
that
they
were
naked;
and
they
sewed
fig
leaves
together
and
made
loincloths
for
themselves.

Reading: Romans 5:12-19
12
Therefore,
just
as
sin
came
into
the
world
through
one
man,
and
death
came
through
sin,
and
so
death
spread
to
all
because
all
have
sinned—
13
sin
was
indeed
in
the
world
before
the
law,
but
sin is not reckoned when there is no law.
14
Yet
death
exercised
dominion
from
Adam
to
Moses,
even
over
those
whose
sins
were
not
like
the
transgression
of
Adam,
who
is
a
type
of
the
one who was to come.
15
But
the
free
gift
is
not
like
the
trespass.
For
if
the
many
died
through
the
one
man’s
trespass,
much
more
surely
have
the
grace
of
God
and
the
free
gift
in
the
grace
of
the
one
man,
Jesus
Christ, abounded for the many.
16
And
the
free
gift
is
not
like
the
effect
of
the
one
man’s
sin.
For
the
judgement
following
one
trespass
brought
condemnation,
but
the
free
gift
following many trespasses brings justification.
17
If,
because
of
the
one
man’s
trespass,
death
exercised
dominion
through
that
one,
much
more
surely
will
those
who
receive
the
abundance
of
grace
and
the
free
gift
of
righteousness
exercise
dominion
in
life
through
the one man, Jesus Christ.
18
Therefore
just
as
one
man’s
trespass
led
to
condemnation
for
all,
so
one
man’s
act
of
righteousness
leads
to
justification
and
life
for
all.
19
For
just
as
by
the
one
man’s
disobedience
the
many
were
made
sinners,
so
by
the
one
man’s
obedience
the many will be made righteous.
Gospel: Matthew 4:1-11
The Temptation of Jesus
1
Then
Jesus
was
led
up
by
the
Spirit
into
the
wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2
He
fasted
for
forty
days
and
forty
nights,
and
afterwards he was famished.
3
The
tempter
came
and
said
to
him,
‘If
you
are
the
Son
of
God,
command
these
stones
to
become loaves of bread.’
4
But
he
answered,
‘It
is
written,
“One
does
not
live
by
bread
alone,
but
by
every
word
that
comes from the mouth of God.”
’
5
Then
the
devil
took
him
to
the
holy
city
and
placed him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6
saying
to
him,
‘If
you
are
the
Son
of
God,
throw
yourself
down;
for
it
is
written,
“He
will
command
his
angels
concerning
you”,
and
“On
their
hands
they
will
bear
you
up,
so
that
you
will not dash your foot against a stone.”
’
7
Jesus
said
to
him,
‘Again
it
is
written,
“Do
not
put the Lord your God to the test.”
’
8
Again,
the
devil
took
him
to
a
very
high
mountain
and
showed
him
all
the
kingdoms
of
the world and their splendour;
9
and
he
said
to
him,
‘All
these
I
will
give
you,
if you will fall down and worship me.’
10
Jesus
said
to
him,
‘Away
with
you,
Satan!
for
it
is
written,
“Worship
the
Lord
your
God,
and
serve
only
him.”
’
11
Then
the
devil
left
him,
and
suddenly angels came and waited on him.

took
the

put

16
And
the

3
Now
the
serpent
was
more
crafty
than
any

He
said
to
the

‘Did

2
The
woman
said
to
the
serpent,
‘We
may
eat
of
the
fruit
of
the
trees
in
the
garden;
3
but
God
said,
“You
shall
not

of
the
fruit
of
the
tree
that
is
in
the
middle
of
the
garden,
nor
shall
you
touch
it,
or
you

die.”
’
4
But
the
serpent
said
to
the
woman,
‘You
will
not
die;
5
for
God
knows
that
when
you
eat
of
it
your
eyes
will
be
opened,
and
you

6
So
when

food,
and
that
it

and
