Still working through Mark, now into the Transfiguration.
Why Moses and Elijah?
Here's a thought.
Last time Moses met God on a mountain, the big question was how the sin of the golden calf could be atoned for: now God reveals the answer.
Last time Elijah met God on a mountain, the big question was whether there was a remnant: and Jesus has brought some prime examples of the remnant.
If those last words sound loaded with irony, they are. Then again, you and I aren't any better, are we?
