Then the devil left him, and now, angels came near and were ministering to Jesus.
This passage concludes the account of Jesus’ temptation, showing His complete victory over evil. Satan’s departure symbolizes the defeat of temptation, and the angels’ coming near signifies God’s confirmation and strengthening upon His Son. Jesus overcame not by a miracle or by force, but by obedience and faithfulness to God’s word. The angels’ appearance and their service to Jesus symbolize God’s support and care toward His Son, who has passed through severe trials and remained faithful to God’s will. By Jesus’ example we also understand that God never leaves the believer alone in temptation; when the trial ends, divine comfort and strength come.
