Katie needs to make this episode brief but still wants to give you something special. So, here is the talk she gave on the top of Mt. Tabor, the site of the Transfiguration just two months ago while on pilgrimage in the Holy Land. Yes, it’s short but it still covers all the highlights!
In this episode discover:
- The brief phrase that clearly but subtly links the Transfiguration to Peter’s confession at Caesarea Philippi
- The obvious parallel between the three men that Jesus brings up the Mount of Transfiguration and the three men that Moses brings up Mt. Sinai
- How the Transfiguration is a foreshadowing of and preparation for Calvary
- The Biblical and extrabiblical texts that shed light on the significance of Moses and Elijah appearing with Jesus (hint: it has to do with the resurrection)
- How the Jewish feast of Tabernacles helps explain Peter’s often ridiculed exclamation
