Matthew 4:8 Douay-Rheims

Again the devil took him up into a very high mountain, and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them,

Jerome

c. A.D. 347–420 Patristic

The Devil and Peter are not, as many suppose, condemned to the same sentence. To Peter it is said, Get thee behind me, Satan; i. e. follow thou behind Me who art contrary to My will. But here it is, Go, Satan, and is not added ‘behind Me,’ that we may understand into the fire prepared for thee and thy angels.
