Mark 9:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ His clothes became shining white, whiter than any ·person [launderer on earth] could ·make them [bleach them]. ⁴ Then Elijah and Moses appeared to them, talking with Jesus. [^CGod had given the Law through Moses, and Elijah was an important prophet (see 6:1); together they signify that Jesus fulfills the OT.]

⁵ Peter said to Jesus, “·Teacher [^LRabbi], it is good that we are here. Let us make three ·tents [shelters; shrines; tabernacles; Lev. 23:42]—one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” [^CPerhaps Peter wanted to prolong their stay or to commemorate their visit.]
