Holy Transfiguration



We did not follow cleverly invented stories
when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
For he received honor and glory from God the Father
when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory,
saying, "This is my Son, whom I love;
with him I am well pleased."
We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven
when we were with him on the sacred mountain.


The image above is, of course, Fra Angelico's Transfiguration.
