Each liturgical year on the Second Sunday of Lent our Gospel
Reading recounts what we call the Transfiguration of Christ. On
the First Sunday (last week) we heard one of the accounts of
Jesus’ temptations in the desert. There is a reason we hear this
Gospel Word in this order. Last week we were informed of the
temptations that await us, especially during this Holy Lenten
period.
This week the way to overcome these temptations is revealed.
The word “transfiguration” comes from the Latin trans, which
means “across” and figura, meaning “form” or “shape.” It
signifies a change of form or appearance, and this is exactly what
happened to Jesus; His appearance changed and became glorious.
The description of the Transfiguration occurs in all three
Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke). This is a
proclamation of the Lord’s divinity. It is intended for all of us. In
fact, each of us is invited, just as Peter, James, and John are, to
become a part of this experience. We are called to conversion and
witness of the truth.
That is what Lent should be all about for us. The stewardship
message is that we need to strive for conversion, for grasping the
hope offered by Christ. St. Thomas Aquinas wrote, “At His
Transfiguration Christ showed His disciples the splendor of His
beauty, to which He will shape and color those who are His.” Are
we His? The Catechism of the Catholic Church says, “Christ,
Head of the Church, manifests what His Body contains and
radiates the sacraments, ‘the hope of glory’.” (CCC 568)
