Lucas 9:28 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:28

And it came to pass, about an eight days after those
sayings
About a week after he had declared the above things, at, or near to Caesarea Philippi. The other evangelists, Matthew and Mark, say it was six days after: the reason of this difference is, because Luke takes in the day in which he delivered these sayings, and that in which he was transfigured, and they only reckon the intermediate days:

he took Peter, and John, and James;
the same that he admitted to be with him at the raising of Jairus's daughter, and in the garden afterwards:

and went up into a mountain to pray;
to his God and Father, that his disciples might have a visible display of his glory, as an emblem and pledge of that in which he shall hereafter appear: it was usual with Christ to go up into a mountain to pray; ( Matthew 14:23 ) ( Luke 6:12 ) . (See Gill on Matthew 17:1).

Lucas 9:28 In-Context

26 Si alguien se avergüenza de mí y de mis palabras, el Hijo del hombre se avergonzará de él cuando venga en su gloria y en la gloria del Padre y de los santos ángeles.
27 Además, les aseguro que algunos de los aquí presentes no sufrirán la muerte sin antes haber visto el reino de Dios.
28 Unos ocho días después de decir esto, Jesús, acompañado de Pedro, Juan y Jacobo, subió a una montaña a orar.
29 Mientras oraba, su rostro se transformó, y su ropa se tornó blanca y radiante radiante.
30 Y aparecieron dos personajes —Moisés y Elías— que conversaban con Jesús.
