This is such a great chapter, the feeding of the 5,000, Peter confesses that Jesus is the Messiah, Jesus foretells His death and then James, John, and Peter witness the transfiguration. (and more)
But as I read this at the end of Easter Sunday the passage that gives me hope is:
21 And he strictly charged and commanded them to tell this to no one,
22 saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised."
He is Risen Indeed!
Luke 9
ReplyDelete29-31 While Jesus was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly, both Moses and Elijah were talking with him. They appeared in heavenly glory and were discussing Jesus’ approaching death and what he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem.
