Today's Readings
Psalm 87:1 & Psalm 87:2 & Psalm 87:5
His foundation is in the holy mountains. The LORD loves the gates of ZionMore than all the dwellings of Jacob. And of Zion it will be said,
"This one and that one were born in her;
And the Most High Himself shall establish her."
Mk 9:2-13
Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them. And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"-- b...Synaxarium

أَسَاسُهُ فِي الْجِبَالِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ.الرَّبُّ أَحَبَّ أَبْوَابَ صِهْيَوْنَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مَسَاكِنِ يَعْقُوبَ.
وَلِصِهْيَوْنَ يُقَالُ: [هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ وَهَذَا الإِنْسَانُ وُلِدَ فِيهَا وَهِيَ الْعَلِيُّ يُثَبِّتُهَا].
مرقس ٩ : ٢-١٣
وَصَارَتْ ثِيَابُهُ تَلْمَعُ بَيْضَاءَ جِدّاً كَالثَّلْجِ لاَ يَقْدِرُ قَصَّارٌ عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَنْ يُبَيِّضَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ. وَظَهَرَ لَهُمْ إِيلِيَّا مَعَ مُوسَى وَكَانَا يَتَكَلَّمَانِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ. فَجَعَلَ بُطْرُسُ يَقولُ لِيَسُوعَ: «يَا سَيِّدِي جَيِّدٌ أَنْ نَكُونَ هَهُنَا. فَلْنَصْنَعْ ثَلاَثَ مَظَالَّ لَكَ وَاحِدَةً وَلِمُوسَى وَاحِدَةً وَلِإِيلِيَّا وَاحِدَةً». لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَعْلَمُ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ إِذْ كَانُوا مُرْتَعِبِينَ. وَكَانَتْ سَحَابَةٌ تُظَلِّلُهُمْ. فَجَاءَ صَوْتٌ مِنَ السَّحَابَةِ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا هُوَ ابْنِي الْحَبِيبُ. لَهُ اسْمَعُوا». فَنَظَرُوا حَوْلَهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَحَداً غَيْرَ يَسُوعَ وَحْدَهُ مَعَهُمْ. وَفِيمَا هُمْ نَازِلُونَ مِنَ الْجَبَلِ أَوْصَاهُمْ أَنْ لاَ يُحَدِّثُوا أَحَداً بِمَا أَبْصَرُوا إلاَّ مَتَى قَامَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ. فَحَفِظُوا الْكَلِمَةَ لأَنْفُسِهِمْ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ: «مَا هُوَ الْقِيَا...السنكسار
