The transfiguration · A voice from the cloud

Matthew 17:1–13

17:1And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

17:2And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

17:3And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

17:4Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

17:5While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

17:6And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

17:7And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

17:8And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

17:9And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

17:10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?

17:11And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

17:12But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

17:13Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

Reading notes

Peter proposes three shelters, but the voice from the cloud interrupts him. The disciples are told to listen to Jesus; their fear is followed by his touch and instruction not to be afraid.

On the descent comes a prohibition on reporting the vision until the resurrection and a question about Elijah. The vision is interpreted through the ensuing conversation, which is why the selected episode includes the return from the mountain.
