Jesus reveals His coming Passion, the glory of the Transfiguration, and the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets.
In Episode 36 of our study of the Gospel of Matthew, Carter Wilson concludes Chapter 16 before Todd returns to lead us through the incredible account of the Transfiguration in Chapter 17. This passage is packed with some of the most significant moments in the Gospel. Jesus foretells His Passion, death, and resurrection, rebukes Peter with the startling words, “Get behind me, Satan,” and teaches about the cost of discipleship. We then ascend the mountain with Peter, James, and John as Jesus is transfigured before them in glory. Joined by Moses and Elijah, Christ reveals Himself as the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets. Along the way, we explore connections to the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles and discover why the Transfiguration is such a pivotal moment in salvation history.
