Bible verse
At once the Spirit drove Jesus into the wilderness,
Mark 1:12 · BSB
The verses around it, from Mark 1.
8 I baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 As soon as Jesus came up out of the water, He saw the heavens breaking open and the Spirit descending on Him like a dove.
11 And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
12 At once the Spirit drove Jesus into the wilderness,
13 and He was there for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and the angels ministered to Him.
14 After the arrest of John, Jesus went into Galilee and proclaimed the gospel of God.
15 “The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”
16 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
