Pertanyaan: 390. Apa yang Dimaksud dengan Transfigurasi?

Transfigurasi mengindikasikan perubahan bentuk atau penampilan. Bentuk-bentuk Musa dan Elia, ketika mereka muncul di Gunung, menjadi spiritual. Lukas 9:31 berbicara tentang subjek pembicaraan mereka. Beberapa komentator berpendapat bahwa baik Musa maupun Elia dihormati dengan kebangkitan antisipatif, yang tampaknya didukung oleh kehadiran mereka dalam transfigurasi.

Question: 390. What Is Meant by Transfiguration?

"Transfiguration" signifies a change of form or appearance. The forms of Moses and Elijah, when they appeared on the Mount, were spiritualized. Luke 9:31 speaks of the subject of their converse. Some commentators hold that both Moses and Elijah were honored with an anticipatory resurrection, which would seem to be borne out by the fact of their presence at the transfiguration.
