Commemorated on August 8
The hymns at Vespers today speak of the sun appearing dim compared to the divine light of the Transfiguration. In His compassion for humanity, Christ took on mortal flesh, yet Peter, James and John saw the radiance of His glory. The incarnate Lord "made Adam's darkened image to shine again" when He appeared on earth "arrayed in the original beauty of the Image (Genesis 1:26).
