Matthew 4:7-10

Context
4:7 Jesus said to him, “Once again it is written: ‘You are not to put the Lord your God to the test.’” 1  4:8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur. 2  4:9 And he said to him, “I will give you all these things if you throw yourself to the ground and worship 3  me.” 4:10 Then Jesus said to him, “Go away, 4  Satan! For it is written: ‘You are to worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’” 5

[4:7]  1 sn A quotation from Deut 6:16.

[4:8]  2 tn Grk “glory.”

[4:9]  3 tn Grk “if, falling down, you will worship.” BDAG 815 s.v. πίπτω 1.b.α.ב has “fall down, throw oneself to the ground as a sign of devotion, before high-ranking persons or divine beings.”

[4:10]  4 tc The majority of later witnesses (C2 D L Z 33 Ï) have “behind me” (ὀπίσω μου; opisw mou) after “Go away.” But since this is the wording in Matt 16:23, where the text is certain, scribes most likely added the words here to conform to the later passage. Further, the shorter reading has superior support (א B C*vid K P W Δ 0233 Ë1,13 565 579* 700 al). Thus, both externally and internally, the shorter reading is strongly preferred.

[4:10]  5 sn A quotation from Deut 6:13. The word “only” is an interpretive expansion not found in either the Hebrew or Greek (LXX) text of the OT.
