Luke 4 is the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament of the Christian Bible, traditionally attributed to Luke the Evangelist, a companion of Paul the Apostle on his missionary journeys.[1] This chapter details Jesus' three temptations, the start of his "Galilean Ministry",[2] and his rejection at Nazareth, which Luke contrasts with his acclaim in nearby Capernaum.
