The Transfiguration
And he was transfigured before them, and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no one on earth could bleach them.
Mark 9:2b-3 NRSV
The story of the transfiguration follows the first prophecy of Jesus’ passion, death, and resurrection and his commission to the disciples to take up their cross and follow him. The transfiguration establishes Jesus’ divinity, his unique relationship with God.
