In Matthew 4:6, Satan quotes Psalm 91, to which Jesus responds with Deuteronomy 6:16.

Zack Hunt @ZaackHunt So very likely? Cause that's kinda Satan's thing in the Bible. He does it like literally every time he shows up. But, of course, you would have to actually read the Bible to know that.

Even without the actual examples highlighting this, quoting the Bible but in a way that clearly misses what the actual message of the passage was meant to get across in an attempt to justify morally objectionable actions is exactly the kind of thing I can see Satan doing.
