Sorry, should have added this to the last post.

Christ's temptation happened at the *outset* of his ministry, just after his 
baptism (Second Task?) and at the start of his last *three* years on earth.

Which means Stoned!Harry is due for some inducements to join the Dark side 
about now, by my reckoning.

('The Last Temptation' is the title of a book  by Kazantzakis, if I've 
spelled that right, turned into a film which was condemned as blasphemous in 
some quarters. I think perhaps you're conflating this with the Agony in the 
Garden, when Christ asked to be spared his fate.)
