a beautiful significant moment indeed
oh to be there, as the apostles were

what might have been going on in their minds?
the extreme profundity of the situation
a joy of redemption from sacrifice
through God becoming flesh and suffering immensely for our salvation
"He who followeth Me, walketh not in darkness." sayeth the Lord
