The Bearer of God vs. The Bearer of Rage This is not the Last Temptation. This is the True Temptation. Yeshua fasts in the desert after his Baptism in the Jordan. He encounters the pangs of hunger, the satisfaction of water, and joy in his fellow creatures. He also encounters the Satan, the dark angel who walks the earth, corrupting and condemning. The man and the demon begin a series of dialogues on the human condition, the nature of faith, and the hunger for salvation. The Satan will use every tool at his disposal to break Yeshua's spirit. Readers familiar with the Biblical account will find much to admire in this arresting retelling: It adds to the Gospel story without weakening its message It gives the Devil his due, but no more It's depiction of Jesus is within the understanding of Nicene Christianity
