Lucas 9

27 But listen carefully! Some of you (pl) who are here now will see God ruling [MET] in many powerful ways. You will see it before you die!"

Jesus talked with Moses and Elijah.

28 About a week after Jesus said those things, he took Peter, James, and James’ brother John and led them up a mountain so that he could pray there. 29 As he was praying, his face appeared very different to them. His clothes became as bright as lightning. 30,31 Suddenly, two men appeared who had the brightness of heaven surrounding them. They were prophets who had lived long ago, Moses and Elijah. They started talking with Jesus about how he would accomplish what God had planned when he died [EUP] very soon in Jerusalem.
