And it came to pass, about eight days after these words, that he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. And as he prayed, the appearance of his face was changed, and his raiment became white and glittering. And. behold, two men conversed with him, who were Moses and Elijah; read more.
they appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem. And Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep; but having fully awakened, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. And it came to pass, that, as they were withdrawing from him, Peter said to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for thee, one for Moses, and one for. Elijah, not knowing what he said. While he was saying these things, there came a cloud, and it overshadowed them; and they were afraid as those men entered the cloud. And there came a voice from the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him. And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it secret, and told no one, in those days, any of the things which they had seen.

And after six days, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up into a high mountain apart: and he was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his clothing was white as the light. And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. read more.
And Peter answered and said to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here; if thou wilt, let us make here three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and lo, a voice from the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight; hear him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were greatly afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said: Arise and be not afraid. And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus. And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying: Tell the vision to no one, till the Son of man has risen from the dead.
