Hebrews 2:17 For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for[f]the sins of the people. 18Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.
A) Jesus was exactly human, right down to the capacity to sin. this is the real miracle of his life, that he was able to sin but never did. i cant even go without sinning for an hour in any given day. he went 289080 hours (at least) without sinning.
B) he was tempted. If he was incapable of sinning, he couldnt be tempted. yet we see Satan, the one who introduced sin to the human race, try to tempt Jesus. If Jesus hadnt been able to sin, Satan would have known and never tried to tempt him in the first place.
