Mark 9:8 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 9:8

And suddenly, when they had looked round about
Upon hearing the voice, to see if they could observe any other object, by whom it was pronounced, and whether the same they had seen continued:

they saw no man any more;
neither Moses, nor Elias, not at that time, nor ever after;

save Jesus only with themselves:
the voice only regarded him, and being directed to them; (See Gill on Matthew 17:8).

Mark 9:8 In-Context

6 For they were all so terrified that Peter did not know what else to say.

7 Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him!”

8 Suddenly, when they looked around, they saw no one with them except Jesus.

9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus admonished them not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

10 So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.
