People's New Testament

9:1 The Transfiguration

SUMMARY OF MARK 9:

The Coming of the Kingdom. The Transfiguration. Moses and Elias. The Elias That Must Come. The Boy with the Dumb Spirit. The Condition of Receiving Christ's Help. The Disciples Taught of Christ's Sufferings. Who Shall Be Greatest?. The Narrowness of the Disciples Rebuked. A Cup of Cold Water in the Name of Christ. The Offending Hand or Eye.

Till they have been seen the kingdom of God come with power. Compare Mt 16:28 Lu 9:27. Matthew says, Till they have seen the Son of man coming in his kingdom; Luke, Till they have seen the kingdom of God. A comparison shows that the reference is to the coming of the kingdom in power. Of the twelve, one at a time was dead; the others had not tasted of death.

Wesley's Notes

9:1 Till they see the kingdom of God coming with power - So it began to do at the day of pentecost, when three thousand were converted to God at once.

CHAPTER 9

Mr 9:1-13. Jesus Is Transfigured-Conversation about Elias. ( = Mt 16:28-17:13; Lu 9:27-36).

See on [1462]Lu 9:27-36.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

9:1-13 Here is a prediction of the near approach Christ's kingdom. A glimpse of that kingdom was given in the transfiguration of Christ. It is good to be away from the world, and alone with Christ: and how good to be with Christ glorified in heaven with all the saints! But when it is well with us, we are apt not to care for others, and in the fulness of our enjoyments, we forget the many wants of our brethren. God owns Jesus, and accepts him as his beloved Son, and is ready to accept us in him. Therefore we must own and accept him as our beloved Saviour, and must give up ourselves to be ruled by him. Christ does not leave the soul, when joys and comforts leave it. Jesus explained to the disciples the prophecy about Elias. This was very suitable to the ill usage of John Baptist.


Matthew 16:28 "Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom."
Mark 13:26 "Then they will see THE SON OF MAN COMING IN CLOUDS with great power and glory.
Luke 9:27 "But I say to you truthfully, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God." (NASB ©1995)
