Mark 9:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 9:4

And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses
Or Moses and Elias, as all the Oriental versions read, as in Mt. 17:3, (See Gill on Matthew 17:3):

and they were talking with Jesus;
concerning his decease, and what he was to do and suffer at Jerusalem, and of which he himself had lately talked with his disciples; so that this might have been a confirmation of these things to them; (See Gill on Matthew 17:3).

Mark 9:4 In-Context

2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up on a high mountain by themselves to be alone. He was transformed in front of them,

3 and His clothes became dazzling-extremely white as no launderer on earth could whiten them.

4 Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5 Then Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here! Let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"-

6 because he did not know what he should say, since they were terrified.
