Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written. The Lord uses the sword of the Spirit in his reply. The word quoted, found in Deuteronomy 8:3, should be used in its connection, in order to comprehend its force. But by every word, etc. The meaning is: If it pleases God to sustain by other means than bread, it will be done. His word can be trusted. God fed Israel with manna, sent by his word, and we can trust his promises.
