4:11 Then the devil went away: Jesus’ rebuff of Satan here foreshadows his victory over demons (12:28), Satan’s defeat through the Cross (Col 2:14-15), and the final victory at the end of history (Rom 16:20; Rev 12:7-17; 20:2-3, 10). • Angels, who had already been involved in the Messiah’s arrival and protection (Matt 1:20, 24; 2:13, 19), now came and took care of Jesus after his temptation, in fulfillment of the Old Testament (4:6; see Ps 91:11-12).
