- Matthew 4:5
Then the devil took Him to the holy city and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple.
Commentary on Matthew 4:52 voices
Then the devil taketh him up--rather, "conducteth Him." into the holy city--so called (as in Isa 48:2; Ne 11:1) from its being "the city of the Great King," the seat of the temple, the metropolis of all Jewish worship. and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple--rather, "the pinnacle"--a certain well-known projection.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871Reformed
The holy city - So Jerusalem was commonly called, being the place God had peculiarly chosen for himself. On the battlement of the temple - Probably over the king's gallery, which was of such a prodigious height, that no one could look down from the top of it without making himself giddy.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the New Testament, 1755Evangelical
