From Google AI Mode

The event itself
• Who did Jesus take with him to the mountain? Why do you think he chose these three disciples?
• What happened to Jesus' appearance during the transfiguration? How is this described?
• Who appeared with Jesus, and what is the significance of their presence together? What do they represent?
• How did Peter respond to what he saw, and what does his suggestion to build shelters reveal about his state of mind?

The divine message
• What was the significance of the cloud that overshadowed them, and what does it symbolize?
• What did the voice from the cloud say, and how does this affirmation from God the Father connect to Jesus' baptism?
• What is the meaning of the command, "Listen to him"? How does this apply to discipleship?

After the transfiguration
• When the disciples looked around, what did they see? What is the significance of "Jesus alone" being with them?
• What command did Jesus give the disciples as they came down the mountain? Why?
• Why were the disciples confused by Jesus' instruction not to speak about what they had seen until "the Son of Man had risen from the dead"?
• How does the transfiguration connect to Jesus' earlier prediction of his suffering and death (Mark 8:31)?

Deeper reflection and application
• How does this passage deepen your understanding of Jesus' divine identity?
• The disciples experienced a "mountaintop" moment of glory followed by the reality of suffering. What does this path of suffering followed by glory mean for our Christian lives?
• In what ways might we, like Peter, be tempted to try and "capture" a spiritual moment instead of simply listening and trusting Jesus?
• What might the presence of Moses (the Law) and Elijah (the Prophets) and their subsequent disappearance imply about Jesus' authority?
