-
When Jesus went up on a mountain with the apostles and there was a whole lot of lightning and shit...then Moses and Elijah and maybe some other dudes appeared and were talking with Jesus. Jesus was [resplendent] in light and the apostles wanted to stay and build booths there; kind of like [Summerfest] 30 A.D. In an instant it ended, and Jesus told the apostles not to tell of it until after the Resurrection. Observed as a Feast by the Catholic Church on [August 6] and also commemorated each year on the Second Sunday of Lent.
