-The '''Transfiguration of Jesus''' refers to an episode in the live of [[Jesus of Nazareth]], as narrated in the Gospels of Mark (9:2–13), Matthew (17:1-13), and Luke (9:28-36).
-==Overview==
-The Transfiguration is located on the top of an unnamed mountain. Since the 4th century [[Mount Tabor]] has become the traditional site of the event. It is however very unlikely that this was the intended location of the narrative. The top of [[Mount Tabor]] was then occupied by a fortress and is quite distant from [[Caeserea Philippa]] where Jesus stayed with his disciples. [[Mount Hermon]] (or other location in Upper Galilee) provides a better alternative.

-==The Transfiguration in Fiction==
-The traditional Christian iconography of the Transfiguration is that of an intimate mystical experience that involved Jesus and three of his disciples in a remote and solitary location. By including the ''Miracle of the Possessed Boy'', [[Raphael]] and [[Peter Paul Rubens]] transformed the scene into a crowded public event.
