And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light.

And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.

Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, ^(c)I will make three ^[b]tabernacles here, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
