Matthew 26:53 shows Jesus choosing not to call angels for rescue, unlike in 4:11 where angels attended him after the temptation.

Mark 1:13 is the parallel account: 'and the angels were ministering to him' — same event, identical role.

Luke 4:13 describes the same event — the devil departing — and adds that he left only until an opportune time.

Hebrews 1:14 defines angels as 'ministering spirits sent to serve' — directly describing the role they fulfill in Matthew 4:11.

1 Kings 19:6 describes an angel providing food for Elijah — a direct parallel of angelic ministry to a weary servant of God.

Luke 22:43 records an angel strengthening Jesus in Gethsemane — another instance of angelic ministry to Jesus in trial.
