Transfiguration: Mystery made a Reality
It is Jesus who manifested simultaneously two natures in himself. We see down history of Israel how God has been protecting them in various forms. In the form of a cloud during the day and in the form of pillar at night. However Israelites could not understand the mysterious revelation of God as he was making mystery into a Reality. Even mother Mary the seat of wisdom became the part of this mysterious salvific project. Thus even she is enabled to teach us wisdom and love. Jesus is Mr Perfect. Therefore, he was made perfect to stand on the pulpit to set good example of the providential Father and Spirit. On mount Tabor, he once again manifests his splendour and glory to his disciples with the company of Moses and Elijah. When he was born the stars revealed about his birth. When he was crucified there was thunder and earthquake. So, even the cosmos acknowledges His presence and privilege and penance that he brought to the humanity by costing his life as a ransom for many. Thus we have Jesus life as Cosmological History, MytholOgical History and finally we have in Christ tHEistic HIStory. Thus in Christ we see Mystery made HIStory, Myth becomes a Reality and Truth becomes a Certitude. (Genesis creation Myth, God as Truth into a Certitude more scientific and Mystery as part of geographical, cosmological and scientific History.)
