May the Today Bible verses help you build a spiritual relationship with God. You read this verse and understand what God is telling you and what God wants from you.



This all leads up to a pinnacle scene in Matthew’s Gospel account, where Jesus appears as a priest shining on a mountain. This scene is known as the transfiguration.


When Jesus is transfigured (Greek, metamorphoō) on the mountain, his face shines and his clothes become “as white as the light” (Matthew 17:2).

Jesus’ shining face recalls Moses in Exodus 34:29-35, and the garments white as light recall the shimmering priestly garments in Exodus 28. The fact that the priestly garments are described as shining is significant—it’s part of the uncorrupted image of God, the ideal humanity.The author of Hebrews describes Jesus as a greater Moses. Hebrews 3:3. And as a greater Moses, Jesus, the shining royal priest, lives to intercede for his people Hebrews 7:25.And in the greatest act of love, he offered his life as a sacrifice for theirs Hebrews 7:27.
