What does the Bible say about the Transfiguration of Christ?

Answered in 10 sources

The Transfiguration of Christ is a revelation of His divine glory, as noted in Matthew 17:1-8 where He is seen in His true majesty with Moses and Elijah.

The Transfiguration of Christ, as recorded in Matthew 17:1-8, describes a pivotal moment where Jesus takes Peter, James, and John to a high mountain and is transfigured before them. His face shines like the sun, and His clothes become white as light, revealing His divine glory. This event serves as a preview of Christ’s future glory following His death and resurrection and underscores His role as the mediator who fulfills the covenant made between God and His people. It is significant as it illustrates both the divinity of Christ and His preeminence over the law represented by Moses and the prophets represented by Elijah.
