“The appearance of His face changed”; “His clothes became as
bright as a flash of lightning”; Peter, James and John “saw His glory” –
the glory of the Son of God (Luke 9:35). The transfiguration points
forward to Christ’s crucifixion: “They spoke about His departure, which
He was about to bring to fulfilment at Jerusalem” (Luke 9:31). It also
points beyond His crucifixion to the glory of His resurrection – the
glory of Christ, risen from the dead; the glory of Christ, seated at the
Father’s right hand.
God's Word is "a lamp to our feet and a light to our path." He has "wondrous things" to teach us as we pray "Open my eyes that I may see" (Psalm 119:105, 18, 11). "May God's blessing surround you each day, as you trust Him and walk in His way. May His presence within guard and keep you from sin, go in peace, go in joy, go in love." "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your Name give glory, because of Your mercy and Your truth" (Psalm 115:1).
