Matthew 17, the transfiguration. Jesus is Transfigured And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.Mat 17:2 And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone as the sun and his garments became white as the light.Mat 17:3 And there appeared before them Moses and Elijah talking with Jesus.Mat 17:4 And Peter said to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here. If it pleases you, I will make here three tabernacles- one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.Mat 17:5 While he was yet speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, saying: This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear him!Mat 17:6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face and were terrified.Mat 17:7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said: Arise and be not afraid.Mat 17:8 And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, save Jesus only.Mat 17:9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying: Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of Man be risen from the dead.Mat 17:10 And his disciples asked him: Why do the scribes say that Elijah must first come?Mat 17:11 And he answered and said: Elijah indeed comes and shall restore all things.Mat 17:12 But I say unto you, that Elijah came already and they knew him not, but did to him whatever they would. Likewise shall the Son of Man suffer by their hands.Mat 17:13 Then understood the disciples that he spoke to them of John the Baptist.
