And Elijah and Moses appeared before them This phrase introduces two of the most significant figures from the Old Testament, Elijah and Moses, who appear before Jesus and His disciples during the Transfiguration. Elijah, a prophet known for his zealous defense of the worship of Yahweh, represents the prophetic tradition. Moses, the great lawgiver, represents the Law. Their appearance signifies the fulfillment of both the Law and the Prophets in Jesus Christ. The Greek word for "appeared" (ὤφθησαν, ophthēsan) suggests a supernatural revelation, indicating that this was not a mere vision but a divine manifestation. Historically, both figures had mysterious departures from the earth—Moses was buried by God in an unknown location, and Elijah was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind. Their presence here underscores the continuity and culmination of God's redemptive plan through Jesus. talking with Jesus Parallel Commentaries ...
