9:2-8 This account is tied to 8:27–9:1 both chronologically (six days later) and thematically (9:7). • The presence of Peter, James, and John (see also 5:37; 13:3; 14:33) might be the fulfillment of 9:1 (“some standing here”). Some interpreters believe that the pre-incarnate glory of the Son of God broke through the veil of his humanity (John 1:14; 17:5) at the transfiguration. It is more likely that this event was an advance glimpse of the Son of Man’s future glory (see Matt 16:28; 2 Pet 1:16-18; cp. Exod 34:28-35; 2 Cor 3:7-18).
