(A)As they were coming down from the mountain, He (B)gave them orders not to relate to anyone what they had seen, [a]until the Son of Man rose from the dead. 10 They [b]seized upon [c]that statement, discussing with one another [d]what rising from the dead meant. 11 They asked Him, saying, “Why is it that the scribes say that (C)Elijah must come first?” 12 And He said to them, “Elijah does first come and restore all things. And yet how is it written of (D)the Son of Man that (E)He will suffer many things and be treated with contempt? 13 But I say to you that Elijah has [e]indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wished, just as it is written of him.”

As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone(A) what they had seen until the Son of Man(B) had risen from the dead. 10 They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.

11 And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”

12 Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man(C) must suffer much(D) and be rejected?(E) 13 But I tell you, Elijah has come,(F) and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”
