How do we know the transfiguration is true?

Answered in 4 sources

The transfiguration is corroborated by multiple Gospel accounts and the personal testimonies of the apostles who witnessed the event.

The event of the transfiguration is not only recorded in the Gospel of Matthew (17:1-13) but also in Mark (9:2-8) and Luke (9:28-36). The consistency across these accounts provides a strong basis for its truth. Moreover, the transfiguration was a unique experience that intimately involved Peter, James, and John, who later confirmed their testimony of this event in their writings, notably Peter in his second epistle (2 Peter 1:16-18). This multisource narrative and the personal witness of the key disciples strengthen the argument for its historical authenticity.
