Luke 9:36 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:36

And when, the voice was past
The above words were delivered, and it was heard no more: Jesus was found alone; by his disciples; Moses and Elias being gone, and he in the same form in which he was before his transfiguration.

And told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen;
no, not any of their fellow disciples, until that Christ was risen from the dead.
