Mark 9:1

1 And He said to them, ^a“Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see ^bthe kingdom of God present with power.”

Jesus Transfigured on the Mount

2 ^aNow after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them.

3 His clothes became shining, exceedingly ^awhite, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

4 And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—

Mark 9:1 The Transfiguration SUMMARY OF MARK 9: The Coming of the Kingdom. The Transfiguration. Moses and Elias. The Elias That Must Come. The Boy with the Dumb Spirit. The Condition of Receiving Christ's Help. The Disciples Taught of Christ's Sufferings. Who Shall Be Greatest?. The Narrowness of the Disciples Rebuked. A Cup of Cold Water in the Name of Christ. The Offending Hand or Eye. Till they have been seen the kingdom of God come with power. Compare Matthew 16:28 Lu 9:27. Matthew says, "Till they have seen the Son of man coming in his kingdom"; Luke, "Till they have seen the kingdom of God". A comparison shows that the reference is to "the coming of the kingdom in power". Of the twelve, one at a time was dead; the others had not tasted of death.
