28: Mark 9:2-13
The Transfiguration
The Transfiguration
This event probably happened on Mount Hermon near
Caesarea Philippi. The three closest disciples saw Jesus in a very different
form. (John 17:5). Moses was there to represent the law of God because Jesus
came to obey the law completely on our behalf (Matt 5:17). Elijah was there to
represent prophecy, healing and the supernatural life that could never die (2
Kings 2:11-12). Elijah also had to suffer under Jezebel (1 Kings 19:1-3); John
the Baptist suffered and Jesus would soon need to suffer and die.
Why was it necessary for Peter, James
and John to see Jesus in this unusual and awesome state?
What do you make of the transfiguration?
If your faith is earthbound what does this do for you?
Let God speak to you
about heaven and its reality.
