- Matthew 17:1 At the Transfiguration, the same voice that at the moment of his Baptism had indicated to Jesus the way of a suffering Messianism now manifests him as the true Messiah to the three apostles who would witness his agony in the garden. For a few seconds Jesus’ humanity is resplendent with the divine glory of which he had divested himself during his earthly life.
- Matthew 17:1 A high mountain: since the 4th century, this has been identified with Tabor (1843 feet high) on the Plain of Esdraelon.
