It is with this sense of awe that we must approach the transfiguration of Jesus...
“The transfiguration is one of those passages in the Saviour’s earthly history which an expositor would rather pass over in reverent silence…It is too high for us, this August spectacle, we cannot obtain unto it; its grandeur oppresses and stupefies; its mystery surpasses our comprehension; its glory if ineffable” (A.B. Bruce, The Training of the Twelve, p. 190).
Read Matthew 17:1-9, Mark 9:2-9 and Luke 9:28-36 and approach the accounts of His transfiguration with awe.
