Our Lord Jesus wanted to experience the temptations of man Himself before He preached to others. In other words, He practiced what He preached.

If you note the 2nd Adam had the same temptations put before Him as the 1st Adam did.

Lust of the eyes , lust of the flesh and the pride of life..unlike the 1st Adam the 2nd overcame

That is an excellent point. Most people I know always miss this.
