A) AM Radio down, but the show was not OUT. On the mount of Transfiguration, the Disciples witness something extraordinary. They’ve never seen anything like it in a comic book, on television, or on the internet, and no one has ever depicted it. This isn’t in the daily Jerusalem news. Jesus’s appearance changes. They know what he looks like from a human perspective, but at this moment, his face is shining like the sun.
B) As if we could fully comprehend, his clothes become dazzling white. If we apply our understanding from science fiction, we know that when a face disappears and light takes its place, it’s utterly bizarre from a movie magic perspective. How much more bizarre it must be for the disciples when it’s happening right in front of them. And it’s all real.
C) As if this moment isn’t already as bizarre as anything any human being has ever seen or experienced, the next event could be equally strange. At that very moment, while Jesus was shining like the sun and his clothes were dazzling white, Moses and Elijah appeared and started talking with Jesus. Don’t dismiss this too quickly. How did they know it was Moses and Elijah, and how were they conversing with a being whose face was full of light and whose clothes were dazzlingly bright? It’s a mystery.
