(1 Pet. 5.8) On the opposite side, another spiritual tradition of confronting the devil's temptation can be traced back to Jesus going to the desert "to be tempted" (Luke 4:1–13; Matthew 4:1–11). The cenobitic tradition of the Desert Fathers lived out this spiritual warfare by voluntarily facing temptations.

[4] John 1:1-5:11 is a replacement of a presumably damaged folio, and dates to around the 7th century.
[1] [2] Since Luke and John were also credited with the Acts of the Apostles and the Book of Revelation, respectively, information contained in their prologues was eventually spun out into separate prologues to Acts and Revelation. The earliest manuscript with these separate prologues is the Codex Fuldensis of 541–546. [4]
An exorcism performed in the synagogue is recounted in Mark 1:21–28 and Luke 4:31–37. [2] Mark's version reads: They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law.
