Bede the Venerable, on Luke 9:28
Bede the Venerable · c. A.D. 672–735
Luke 9:28 · Douay-Rheims
“And it came to pass about eight days after these words, that he took Peter, and James, and John, and went up into a mountain to pray.”
On this verse:
“Now the transfigured Saviour shews the glory of His own coming, or our resurrection; who as He then appeared to His Apostles shall in like manner appear to all the elect. But the raiment of the Lord is taken for the band of His Saints, which in truth when our Lord was upon earth seemed to be despised, but when He sought the mount, shines with a new whiteness; for now are we the sons of God; and it does not yet appear what we shall be. But we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him. (1 John 3:2.)”
