Six days later Jesus took Peter and the two brothers, James and John, and led them up a high mountain to be alone.
Six days later Jesus took Peter and the two brothers, James and John, and led them up a high mountain to be alone.
Jesus Transfigured on the Mount
Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves;
Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves;
As the men watched, Jesus’ appearance was transformed so that his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as light.
and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared and began talking with Jesus.
And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.
But even as he spoke, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy. Listen to him.”
While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!”
The disciples were terrified and fell face down on the ground.
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid.
Then Jesus came over and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.”
But Jesus came and touched them and said, “Arise, and do not be afraid.”
And when they looked up, Moses and Elijah were gone, and they saw only Jesus.
When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.”
And His disciples asked Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
Jesus replied, “Elijah is indeed coming first to get everything ready.
But I tell you, Elijah has already come, but he wasn’t recognized, and they chose to abuse him. And in the same way they will also make the Son of Man suffer.”
But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him but did to him whatever they wished. Likewise the Son of Man is also about to suffer at their hands.”
Then the disciples realized he was talking about John the Baptist.
Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptist.
Jesus Heals a Demon-Possessed Boy
At the foot of the mountain, a large crowd was waiting for them. A man came and knelt before Jesus and said,
A Boy Is Healed
And when they had come to the multitude, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying,
And when they had come to the multitude, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying,
“Lord, have mercy on my son. He has seizures and suffers terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water.
So I brought him to your disciples, but they couldn’t heal him.”
So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
Jesus said, “You faithless and corrupt people! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.”
Then Jesus rebuked the demon in the boy, and it left him. From that moment the boy was well.
And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.
Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, “Why couldn’t we cast out that demon?”
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
