In a moment of dazzling glory, Jesus encountered the Father on Mount Tabor. This book considers the unparalleled event of the Transfiguration from the perspective of scripture and some of the great teachers of the Church. This event took place as Jesus prayed, a point that brings the meaning of the Transfiguration close to us. Father Cantalamessa’s goal in this book is to bring you up Mount Tabor in prayer so that in gazing on Christ, you will become like Christ, transformed in glory.
