Luke 9:28

About an eight days after. For the Transfiguration, see notes on Mt 17:1-9 Mr 9:1-8. Luke adds the facts (1) that the Lord "went upon the mountain to pray" (Lu 9:28); (2) that "as he prayed", he was transfigured (Lu 9:29); (3) that "the appearance of his countenance was altered" (Lu 9:29); (4) that the theme of conversation with Moses and Elijah was the Lord's "decease" (Lu 9:30,31); (5) that the apostles "were awake" when they saw the vision (Lu 9:32); (6) that they "told no man in those days", even as Jesus directed (Lu 9:36 Mt 17:9).
