Luke 9:27-36
========================
27“Truly I tell you, some who
are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”
28About eight days after
Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James with him and went up onto a
mountain to pray.
29As he was praying, the
appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of
lightning.
30Two men, Moses and Elijah,
appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus.
31They spoke about his departure,
which he was about to bring to fulfillment at
32Peter and his companions
were very sleepy, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the
two men standing with him.
33As the men were leaving
Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up
three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know
what he was saying.)
34While he was speaking, a
cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
35A voice came from the
cloud, saying, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen; listen to him.”
36When the voice had spoken,
they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves and did
not tell anyone at that time what they had seen.
