The Gospel event where Jesus is revealed in divine glory on a mountain with Moses and Elijah is called?

• A. Transfiguration
• B. Ascension
• C. Beatitudes on the Mountain
• D. Pentecost

Answer: (A)

The moment where Jesus is shown in radiant, divine glory on a mountain with Moses and Elijah is the Transfiguration. In this event, Jesus’ appearance becomes dazzling white while Moses (representing the Law) and Elijah (representing the Prophets) appear and speak with him, and a voice from a cloud declares Jesus as the beloved Son. This moment highlights Jesus’ true divine nature and his fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets, confirmed to the disciples Peter, James, and John. It’s different from other major events: the Ascension is Jesus rising to heaven after the Resurrection, the Beatitudes on the Mountain refers to the Sermon on the Mount, and Pentecost is when the Holy Spirit comes to empower the apostles.
