La Trasfigurazione di Gesù – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“The Transfiguration of Jesus – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …
The Transfiguration of Jesus is commemorated in the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church on August 6th, known as the Feast of the Transfiguration. According to the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke), Jesus took three of his apostles, Peter, James, and John, up to a high mountain to pray. During this event, Jesus was transfigured before them, and His appearance changed, with His face shining like the sun and His clothes becoming dazzling white. Moses and Elijah appeared and spoke with Jesus, representing the Law and the prophets, symbolizing that Jesus was the fulfillment of both the Law and the prophets. The voice of God the Father came from a cloud and reaffirmed Jesus' divine nature as the Son of God, instructing the apostles to heed His teachings. The Transfiguration served as a confirmation of Jesus' identity and mission, reinforcing His authority as the Messiah and Son of God. It was a glimpse of His divine glory, preparing the apostles for the challenges and difficulties ahead, particularly His passion and crucifixion. In the Catholic tradition, the Feast of the Transfiguration is a day of celebration and reflection on the glory of Christ and the promise of His resurrection, reminding believers of the eventual transformation that awaits them in Christ's likeness. Overall, the Transfiguration holds significant theological importance in Catholicism, emphasizing the divinity of Christ and His continuity with the Old Testament, and providing encouragement and hope for believers in their journey of faith.
