they replied, some think you are John the Baptist, some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets. Verse ConceptsUnnamed Prophets Of The LordWho He Might Beothers

why then do the Scribes say, that Elias must first come? Jesus answered, 'tis true, Elias was to come first and set all things right. but I tell you, that Elias is already come, tho' they knew him not, but treated him in an arbitrary manner; with such usage as the son of man shall likewise suffer at their hands.

it is true, said he, that Elias must come beforehand to establish every thing, and that it was predicted of him, as well as of the son of man, that he should suffer very much, and be treated with contempt. but I tell you, that Elias is already come, as it was foretold; and they have treated him at their discretion.

art thou then Elias? said they; and he answer'd, I am not. art thou a prophet? and he answer'd, no. said they to him, who then art thou? that we may give an answer to those that sent us: what sayst thou of thy self? "I am, said he, the voice of one crying in the wilderness, clear the way of the Lord," as said the prophet Esaias. read more.
Now the messengers were of the sect of the Pharisees, and they asked him, "why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elias, nor any other prophet?"

After six days, Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, in private to the top of a high mountain. and was transfigured before them; his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. and presently they saw Moses and Elias conversing with him. read more.
then Peter address'd himself to Jesus, Lord, said he, it is good for us to stay here: if you please, let us make three tabernacles here; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elias. while he was speaking, a bright cloud surrounded them: and suddenly a voice broke out of the cloud, saying, "this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him." and when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were in a terrible fright. but Jesus came and touched them, and said, arise, be not afraid. and when they had lift up their eyes, they saw Jesus all alone. As they went down the mountain, Jesus gave them this charge, don't speak of the vision, said he, to any body, till the son of man be risen again from the dead: but his disciples asked him, why then do the Scribes say, that Elias must first come? Jesus answered, 'tis true, Elias was to come first and set all things right. but I tell you, that Elias is already come, tho' they knew him not, but treated him in an arbitrary manner; with such usage as the son of man shall likewise suffer at their hands. then the disciples perceiv'd, that what he said was meant of John the Baptist.

Six days after Jesus took Peter, James and John, and accompanied them up a high mountain in private; and was transfigured in their presence. his raiment was of an exceeding bright whiteness, like that of snow, and such as no fuller upon earth could imitate. Moses and Elias likewise appear'd, and were in conference with Jesus. read more.
then Peter thus address'd himself to Jesus, master, it is proper for us to be here: let us make therefore three tabernacles, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elias. for he knew not what he said, they were all so frightned. then a cloud surrounded them, and a voice from the cloud, said, "this is my beloved son, hear him." and instantly looking round about, they did not see any other person but Jesus with them. as they were going down the mountain, he order'd them not to tell any body what they had seen, till the son of man was raised from the dead: an expression which they dwelt upon, asking one another the meaning of "till he was raised from the dead." At length they started this question, why do the Scribes say, that Elias must first come? it is true, said he, that Elias must come beforehand to establish every thing, and that it was predicted of him, as well as of the son of man, that he should suffer very much, and be treated with contempt. but I tell you, that Elias is already come, as it was foretold; and they have treated him at their discretion.

About eight days after this discourse, he took with him Peter, John, and James, and went up a mountain to pray. as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was quite chang'd, and his raiment was of a splendid white: two persons of a glorious form were seen talking with him; they were Moses, and Elias, read more.
who discours'd about the exit, he was to make at Jerusalem; while Peter, and the others with him, were overwhelm'd with sleep: but when they wak'd, they observed his glory, and the two persons present with him, who were just departing from him, when Peter said to Jesus, master, it is best for us to stay here: let us build three apartments, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing well what he said. while he was speaking, there came a cloud and over-shadowed them, who were seized with fear, at their vanishing in the cloud, from whence a voice issued out, saying, "this is my beloved son, obey him." and before the sound was gone, Jesus was left alone: this they kept secret, and for some time did not acquaint any one in the least with what they had seen.

there is another who testifies of me, and I know that the testimony which he gives of me, is true. you yourselves sent to John, and he bore witness to the truth. not that I need the testimony of men: but this I tell you, for your own security. read more.
he was a burning and a shining light: and you were willing to be entertain'd for a while with his light.

for John instructed you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the licentious believed him. and tho' you saw that, you did not yet repent, so as to believe him.
