3 The Word of God From the Book of Exodus end Moses said, Show me your glory, I pray. And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim before you the name, The LORD ; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. But, he said, you cannot see my face; for no one shall see me and live. And the LORD continued, See, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock; and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by; then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back; but my face shall not be seen. This is the word of the Lord Thanks be to God The Gospel Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke Glory to you, O Lord Jesus took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. And while he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly they saw two men, Moses and Elijah, talking to him. They appeared in glory and were speaking of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. Now Peter and his companions were weighed down with sleep; but since they had stayed awake, they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. Just as they were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three dwellings, one for you, one for Moses, 3

Then from the cloud came a voice that said, This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him! When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and in those days told no one any of the things they had seen.
