Luke 9:33-35

Expanded Bible

³³ When Moses and Elijah were ·about to leave [^Lleaving him], Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three ·tents [shelters; shrines; tabernacles; Lev. 23:42]—one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” [^CPerhaps Peter wanted to prolong their stay or to commemorate their visit.] (Peter did not ·know what he was talking about [^Lrealize/know what he was saying].)

³⁴ While he was saying these things, a cloud came and ·covered [overshadowed] them, and they became afraid as ·the cloud covered them [^Lthey entered the cloud]. ³⁵ [^LAnd; Then] A voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son [Ps. 2:7], ·whom I have chosen [or my Chosen One; Is. 42:1]. Listen to him [Deut. 18:15; Acts 3:22]!”
