Please Read Luke 9:28-35. Link to the passage: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%209:28-35&version=NIV

Jesus has claimed to be the Messiah, sent from God. He has told His disciples that He will die and rise from the dead. And, He has told them that everyone who wants to be His disciple must “take up their cross and follow [Him].”

            About eight days after Jesus said this, He took Peter, John and James with Him and went up onto a mountain to pray. As He was praying, the appearance of His face changed, and His clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. They spoke about His departure, which He was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem.

They spoke about His departure. . . . The Greek word used for “departure” is “exodon.”

Exodus.

I wonder if a better translation, within The Big Story, would be, They spoke about His exodus. . . .

            . . .which He was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem.

Jesus is about to lead an exodus, through death, at Jerusalem.
