What is the meaning of the voice from heaven during the transfiguration?

Answered in 1 source

The voice from heaven confirms Jesus' divine sonship and calls His disciples to listen to Him.

The voice that emanates from the cloud during the transfiguration holds profound significance. God proclaims, 'This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear ye him.' This declaration affirms Jesus' unique relationship with the Father, underscoring His authority and divine identity as the beloved Son. The command to 'hear Him' indicates the importance of His teachings and the necessity for the disciples—and ultimately all believers—to follow His words. This moment serves as a divine endorsement of Jesus' mission and a call for reliance on His guidance as the embodiment of God's revelation to humanity.
