Luke 9:30 In-Context

28 About eight days after Jesus said these things, he took Peter, John, and James and went up on a mountain to pray.

29 While Jesus was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became shining white.

30 Then two men, Moses and Elijah, were talking with Jesus.

31 They appeared in heavenly glory, talking about his departure which he would soon bring about in Jerusalem.
