Feast Of The Transfiguration
The Feast of the Transfiguration is a Christian celebration that commemorates the event when Jesus revealed his divine glory to three of his disciples: Peter, James, and John. This event is described in the Gospels, where Jesus' appearance changes, and he is seen speaking with Moses and Elijah on a mountain. The feast is observed on August 6 in the Western Christian tradition and on different dates in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
The Transfiguration signifies the divine nature of Jesus and serves as a reminder of his future suffering and resurrection. It is a time for reflection on the relationship between the divine and human aspects of faith. The feast encourages believers to seek spiritual transformation and deeper understanding of their faith.
