After

“Elijah is coming and will restore everything,” He replied.

About eight days after these words, He took along Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

An high

So Moses arose with his assistant Joshua and went up the mountain of God.

So Ahab went to eat and drink, but Elijah went up to the summit of Carmel. He bowed down on the ground and put his face between his knees.

When Jesus heard about it, He withdrew from there by boat to a remote place to be alone. When the crowds heard this, they followed Him on foot from the towns.

During those days He went out to the mountain to pray and spent all night in prayer to God.

Transfigured

Then after this, He appeared in a different form to two of them walking on their way into the country.

Your eyes will see the King in His beauty;
you will see a vast land.

He grew up before Him like a young plant
and like a root out of dry ground.
He didn’t have an impressive form
or majesty that we should look at Him,
no appearance that we should desire Him.

The Word became flesh

and took up residence among us.
We observed His glory,
the glory as the One and Only Son from the Father,
full of grace and truth.

Now if the ministry of death, chiseled in letters on stones, came with glory, so that the Israelites were not able to look directly at Moses’ face because of the glory from his face—a fading glory—

who, existing in the form of God,
did not consider equality with God
as something to be used for His own advantage.

He will transform the body of our humble condition into the likeness of His glorious body, by the power that enables Him to subject everything to Himself.

For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.

and among the lampstands was One like the Son of Man,

dressed in a long robe and with a gold sash wrapped around His chest.

Then I saw a great white throne and One seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from His presence, and no place was found for them.
