Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
The transfiguration. The frenzied boy is healed. Who should be the greatest. Offences are forbidden.
2 And after six days, Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up into a high mountain out of the way alone. And he was transfigured before them. 3 And his raiment did shine, and was made very white, even as snow: such a white as no fuller can make upon the earth. 4 And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they talked with Jesus.
5 And Peter spoke and said to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tabernacles: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah. 6 And yet he did not know what he was saying, for they were afraid. 7 And there was a cloud that covered them. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my dear Son; hear him! 8 And suddenly, when they looked round about them, they saw no one but Jesus with them.
