Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
καὶ
and
The word And introduces a contrast between the devil wanting Jesus to turn the stone into bread and Jesus refusing to do that. Alternate translation: “But”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀπεκρίθη πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, γέγραπται
answered to him ¬the Jesus ˱it˲_/has_been/_written
Jesus clearly implies in his answer that he is rejecting the devil’s challenge. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly, as UST does. Alternate translation: “Jesus replied, ‘No, I will not do that, because it is written’”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
γέγραπται, ὅτι οὐκ ἐπ’ ἄρτῳ μόνῳ ζήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος
˱it˲_/has_been/_written ¬that not on bread only /will_be/_living the person
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “It is written that man will not live on bread alone”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
γέγραπται
˱it˲_/has_been/_written
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state what is doing the action. Alternate translation: “The Scriptures say”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
οὐκ ἐπ’ ἄρτῳ μόνῳ ζήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος
not on bread only /will_be/_living the person
The word bread refers to food in general. Jesus quotes this scripture to explain why he will not turn the stone into bread. It means that food by itself, without God, is not enough to sustain a person in life. Alternate translation: “It is not just having food that makes a person truly alive” or “God says there are more important things than food”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
ὁ ἄνθρωπος
¬the the person
Here, Man has a generic sense that refers to all people. Alternate translation: “People”
