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,

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory; and as St. Luke says, in a moment of time. We cannot comprehend how this could be done from any mountain, or seen with human eyes. Therefore many think it was by some kind of representation; or that the devil shewing a part, by words set forth the rest. (Witham) — He shewed him the different climates in which each country was situated. (St. Chrysostom)
