When Jesus took a few of His disciples up the mountain and was transfigured, He was partially fulfilling His own prophesy that at least one of His disciples would not die before seeing Jesus come into His kingdom.

The presence of Moses and Elijah and Jesus' marvelous transformation confirmed God's promise but not in the way the disciples were expecting.
