1 2 P 1.17,18.Six days later Jesustook Peterand the brothers Jamesand Johnwith him. They went up on a very high mountain where they could be alone. 2 There in front of the disciples, Jesus was completely changed. His face was shining like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.
3 All at once Mosesand Elijahwere there talking with Jesus. 4 So Petersaid to him, "Lord, it is good for us to be here! Let us make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
5 Gn 22.2;Ps 2.7;Is 42.1;Mt 3.17;12.18;Mk 1.11;Lk 3.22;Dt 18.15.While Peter was still speaking, the shadow of a bright cloud passed over them. From the cloud a voice said, "This is my own dear Son, and I am pleased with him. Listen to what he says!" 6 When the disciples heard the voice, they were so afraid they fell flat on the ground. 7 But Jesuscame over and touched them. He said, "Get up and don’t be afraid!" 8 When they opened their eyes, they saw only Jesus.
9 On their way down from the mountain, Jesuswarned his disciples not to tell anyone what they had seen until after the Son of Man had been raised from death.
10 Ml 4.5.The disciples asked Jesus, "Don’t the teachers of the Law of Moses say Elijahmust come before the Messiah does?"
11 Si 48.10.Jesus told them, "Elijahcertainly will come and get everything ready. 12 Mt 11.14.In fact, he has already come. But the people did not recognize him and treated him just as they wanted to. They will soon make the Son of Man suffer in the same way." 13 Then the disciples understood Jesus was talking to them about Johnthe Baptist.
