Jesus is tempted for 40 days in the wilderness by the voice of diabolos to give up his God-given identity spoken by the voice of divine love.

Jesus was able to listen to each of these voices and knew he was rooted in the security and peace of divine love that was deeper than any other aim or attempt at significance, meaning, or strength. It is the genius of Jesus. And of us, too, if we can come to trust it more deeply.
