Does anyone know why temptation story is read on the fourth sunday of Bashans.
this reading, the fourth sunday of bashans, is very rarly read do to the normal timeing of the fifties. but it's main reason is that first verse:
Luke 4:1-13
Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being tempted for forty days by the devil.
whoch is being filled and led by the Holy Spirit.
