Analogy Confirm the Doctrine of a Tempter
Matthew 4:1
Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.…


Do not men tempt each other? Sinners entice. Some men are public tempters; tempters of a nation, of an age, to bad feelings, principles, and practices. A Voltaire is a tempter by his wit; a Hume, by his sophistry; a Rousseau, by eloquence; a Byron, by the splendours of poetic genius. Every bad man in an elevated situation is a public tempter.

(R. Watson.)
