This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

A devil (διάβολος)

See on Mat 4:1. The word is an adjective, meaning slanderous, but is almost invariably used in the New Testament as a noun, and with the definite article. The article is wanting only in 1Pe 5:8; Act 13:10; Rev 12:9; and perhaps Rev 20:2. It is of the very essence of the devilish nature to oppose Christ. Compare Mat 16:23.
