Context of Matthew 17:8

6The disciples heard the voice. They threw themselves down to the ground. They were very frightened. 7But Jesus came to them and he touched them. ‘Stand up,’ he said. ‘Do not be afraid.’ When they looked up, they could not see anyone else. Only Jesus was there with them. 9While they were walking down the mountain, Jesus said to the three disciples, ‘You must not tell anyone now about the things that you have just seen. One day, the Son of Man will die and then he will become alive again. Then you can tell people about these things.’ 10Then the three disciples said to Jesus, ‘The teachers of God's Law say that God's prophet Elijah must return first, before the Messiah comes. Why do they say this?’
