The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this piece by Steve Gregg, he discusses the Transfiguration and the appearance of Moses and Elijah. He notes that their presence is significant because they represent the Law and the Prophets in the Old Testament, which makes them important to the Jewish religion. While Jesus was not at the same level as Moses and Elijah, he was still honored by God in their presence. Ultimately, the appearance of Moses and Elijah highlights the importance of Jesus' teachings and the transition from the old covenant to the new.
