Mountain » Is transfigured upon
Six days later Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John, and led them up a high mountain, by themselves apart. Here he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light. And behold! Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Jesus. read more.
Then Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good that we are here! If you are willing I will make here three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." While he was yet speaking, behold! a luminous cloud overshadowed them; and a voice out of the cloud, saying. "This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom is my delight. Listen to him." When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified. But Jesus came to them and touched them, saying, "Rise, have no fear!" And when they raised their eyes they saw no one save Jesus only. While they were going down from the mountain, Jesus laid a command on them. "Speak to no man about the vision," he said, "until after the Son of man has been raised from the dead."

Six days later Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and brought them by themselves up a high mountain apart from the rest. Here in their presence he was transfigured; and his clothes also became glistering with a radiant whiteness, such as no bleaching on earth could give. Moreover there appeared to them Elijah, with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus. read more.
"Master," said Peter, addressing Jesus, "it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three tents one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." (For he did not know what to say, they were so awestruck.) Then there came a cloud overshadowing them; and there came a voice out of the cloud. "This is my Son, my beloved. Listen to him." And suddenly as they looked around, they saw no one any more beside them, but Jesus alone. As they came down the mountain he strictly forbade them to narrate to any one what they had seen, until after the Son of man had risen from the dead. This order they faithfully kept, questioning among themselves what "rising again from the dead" meant.
