Contextual Overview
1 Jesus said to them, "For sure I tell you, some standing here will not die until they see the holy nation of God come with power!" 2 Six days later Jesus took Peter and James and John with Him. He led them up to a high mountain by themselves. Jesus was changed as they looked at Him. 3 His clothes did shine. They were as white as snow. No one on earth could clean them so white. 4 Moses and Elijah were seen talking to Jesus. 5 Peter said to Jesus, "Teacher, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents to worship in. One will be for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah." 6 Peter did not know what to say. They were very much afraid. 7 A cloud came over them and a voice from the cloud said, "This is My much-loved Son. Listen to Him." 8 At once they looked around but saw no one there but Jesus. 9 They came down from the mountain. Then Jesus said with strong words that they should tell no one what they had seen. They should wait until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. 10 So they kept those words to themselves, talking to each other about what He meant by being raised from the dead.
