31 Verily, I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.
Matthew 17 Intro: Christ transfigured upon the mountain.
1 And after six days, Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain, apart, and was transfigured before them; and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
2 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias, talking with him.
3 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here; if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, one for Moses, and one for Elias.
4 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and, behold, a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
5 And when the disciples heard the voice, they fell on their faces, and were sore afraid.
6 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
7 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
8 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of Man be risen again from the dead.
9 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the Scribes that Elias must first come?
