"Tell no one about this vision until the Son of man has risen from the dead." 

Matthew 17:9a, 10-13

 

⁹ As they came down from the mountain Jesus gave them this order, 'Tell no one about this vision until the Son of man has risen from the dead.'

¹⁰ And the disciples put this question to him, 'Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?'

¹¹ He replied, 'Elijah is indeed coming, and he will set everything right again;

¹² however, I tell you that Elijah has come already and they did not recognise him but treated him as they pleased; and the Son of man will suffer similarly at their hands.'

¹³ Then the disciples understood that he was speaking of John the Baptist.
