Name three that went without food 40 days and 40 nights?
Moses. Elijah, Jesus
Was the faith of the apostles confirmed in the Transfiguration?
A:Jesus took Peter, James and John up into a high mountain, where his appearance changed, and they saw him talking to two strangers and heard the voice of God. Somehow, the disciples knew without question that the strangers talking to Jesus were Moses and Elijah. Read literally, the sole reason for this journey was to let the three disciples see Jesus talking to Moses and Elijah, yet they learnt nothing from the experience and were even instructed to tell no one. In spite of this life-changing event, and its apparently absolute proof that Jesus was the Messiah, Peter went on to deny Jesus. If the Transfiguration ever happened, this shows that whatever faith the apostles had was not confirmed by this experience. It must be that they were less sure of who the strangers were than is suggested in the gospel story - why the disciples even thought the men were Moses and Elijah is not stated.

What happened to Jesus as he stood before his disciples when he was being transfigured?
The original New Testament account of the transfiguration is in Mark chapter 9. Jesus took Peter, James and John up into a high mountain, where his appearance changed and his garments became shining and as white as snow. The disciples saw him talking to Moses and Elijah. Mark's Gospel does not say in what way his appearance changed, but Matthew added that his face shone like the sun. The disciples somehow knew without question that the strangers talking to Jesus were Moses and Elijah and offered to build three tabernacles, one each for Jesus, Moses and Elijah. Read literally, the sole reason for this journey was to let the three disciples see Jesus talking to Moses and Elijah. Yet they learnt nothing from the experience and were even instructed to tell no one. In spite of this life-changing event, and its supposedly absolute proof that Jesus was the Messiah, Peter went on to deny Jesus.
Why did Moses and Elijah visit Jesus?
