He knows what it's like down here—because he's lived in our world. He knows what it's like to be a human; to have needs and wants. He knows what it's like to suffer when those needs and wants aren't fulfilled.
Heb 2: 14—18:
Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham's descendants. 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 the sins of the people. Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.
