Another answer from our community:Immediately following His baptism, the Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted by Satan. Jesus fasted over a period of 40 days and then was tempted by Satan 3 times (Mark 1:12-13, Matt. 4:1-11, Luke 4:1-13).
There is not just one single passage that specifically states " and Jesus walked for 40 days" after the resurrection. In John chapter 21, some 3 weeks after his resurrection, Jesus appears to his disciples. There are several other accounts of Jesus' appearance to others (Mark 16:14; Luke 24:36-43; John 20:19-31), on the road to Emmaus (Mark 16:12-14; Luke 24:13-35; 1 Cor. 15:5), the great commission (Mark 16:15-18; Matt. 28:16-20; 1 Cor. 15:6-7), promise of the Holy Ghost (Luke 24:44-49; Acts 1:4-8) and his last appearance and ascension (Mark 16:19-20; Luke 24:50-53; Acts 1:9-12) 40 days (in the Bible) is used as a round number to indicate completion or fullness. Other examples of its use... during the flood in rained 40 days Moses fled at age 40, was in Midian for 40 years, and was on Mount Sinai for 40 days Israel wandered in the wilderness for 40 years the spies spent 40 days in Canaan Elijah fasted 40 days Nineveh was given 40 days respite Jesus fasted 40 days and was on earth 40 days after the resurrection
Actually Jesus was in the desert for forty days and nights. And yes he did get tempted by Satan. Three times.
Jesus was tempted by Satan after He was baptized, when He went into the wilderness for 40 days and nights. Read the account in Matthew 4:1 through 11.
The bible clearly states that Jesus was tempted by the devil in the wilderness.

Actually, Jesus was tempted during the 40 days in the wilderness, not after. Satan offered Him power, land and riches, all of which Jesus refused. Then Satan wanted Jesus to prove He was the son of God, again, Jesus would have no part of it.
