   transfigured before them.   
   [3] And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller   
   on earth can white them.   
   [4] And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking   
   with Jesus.   
   [5] And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be   
   here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses,   
   and one for Elias.   
   [6] For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.   
   [7] And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of   
   the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.   
   [8] And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any   
   more, save Jesus only with themselves.   
   [9] And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they   
   should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen   
   from the dead.   
   [10] And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another   
   what the rising from the dead should mean.   
   [11] And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first   
   come?   
   [12] And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth   
   all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer   
   many things, and be set at nought.   
   [13] But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto   
   him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.   
      
   Matthew 17:1-13   
      
   The Transfiguration   
   Mk 9:2-13; Lk 9:28-36   
      
   1 (Mt 26:37; Mk 5:37) After six days Jesus took Peter, James,   
   and John his brother and brought them up to a high mountain alone,   
   2 (Ps 104:2; Mt 28:3) and was transfigured before them. His face shone   
   as the sun, and His garments became white as the light.   
   3 Suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.   
   4 (Lk 9:33) Then Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here.   
   If You wish, let us make three tabernacles here: one for You, one for Moses,   
   and one for Elijah."   
   5 (Mt 3:17; Isa 42:1) While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud   
   overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is My beloved Son,   
   with whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him."   
   6 (2Pe 1:18) When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces   
   and were filled with awe.   
   7 (Da 8:18; 10:10) But ­Jes­us came and touched them and said,   
   "Rise, and do not be afraid."   
   8 When they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.   
   9 (Mk 8:30) As they came down the mountain, Jesus commanded them,   
   "Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead."   
   10 (Mt 11:14; Mal 4:5-6) His disciples asked Him,   
   "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"   
   11 (Lk 1:16-17; Mal 4:6) Jesus answered,   
   "Elijah truly does first come and will restore all things.   
   12 (Mt 16:21) But I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not   
   know him, but did to him whatever they pleased. Likewise, the Son of Man   
   will also suffer at their hands."   
   13 Then the disciples understood that He was speaking to them of John   
   the Baptist.   
      
   [1] And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and   
   bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,   
   [2] And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and   
   his raiment was white as the light.   
   [3] And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.   
   [4] Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be   
   here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and   
   one for Moses, and one for Elias.   
   [5] While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold   
   a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am   
   well pleased; hear ye him.   
   [6] And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore   
   afraid.   
   [7] And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.   
   [8] And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus   
   only.   
   [9] And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying,   
   Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the   
   dead.   
   [10] And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that   
   Elias must first come?   
   [11] And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come,   
   and restore all things.   
   [12] But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not,   
   but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son   
   of man suffer of them.   
   [13] Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the   
   Baptist.   
      
   Luke 9:28-36   
      
   The Transfiguration   
   Mt 17:1-8; Mk 9:2-8   
      
   28 (Lk 6:12; 8:51) About eight days after these sayings, He took Peter   
   and John and James and went up onto a mountain to pray.   
   29 As He prayed, the appearance of His countenance was altered,   
   and His clothing was white and glistening.   
   30 And suddenly two men were talking with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,   
   31 who appeared in glory and spoke of His departure   
   which He was to accomplish in Jerusalem.   
   32 (Da 8:18; Jn 1:14) Peter and those who were with him   
   were heavy with sleep. But waking thoroughly, they saw His glory   
   and the two men who stood with Him.   
   33 (Mk 9:5-6)As they departed from Him, Peter said to Jesus,   
   "Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three sanctuaries:   
   one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,"   
   not knowing what he said.   
   34 While he was speaking, a cloud came and overshadowed them.   
   And they were afraid as they entered the cloud.   
   35 (Mt 3:17; Isa 42:1) A voice came from out of the cloud, saying,   
   "This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him."   
   36 (Mt 17:9) When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone.   
   They kept silent and told no one in those days anything they had seen.   
      
   [28] And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took   
   Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.   
   [29] And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his   
   raiment was white and glistering.   
   [30] And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:   
   [31] Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should   
   accomplish at Jerusalem.   
   [32] But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when   
   they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.   
   [33] And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus,   
   Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one   
   for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.   
   [34] While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and   
   they feared as they entered into the cloud.   
   [35] And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved   
   Son: hear him.   
   [36] And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it   
   close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had   
   seen.

   It Takes Two  by Dave Branon   
      
   Ecclesiastes 4:8-10   
      
   8 (Pr 27:20; Ecc 1:8) There is a man who is alone,   
   neither having son or brother,   
   and there is not an end to all his toil,   
   and his eyes are not satisfied with riches to say,   
   "For whom do I labor   
   and cause my life to lack good things?"   
   Also this is vanity   
   and a burdensome task.   
   9 Two are better than one,   
   because there is a good reward for their labor together.   
   10 For if they fall,   
   then one will help up his companion.
