Benediction O God, who in the glorious Transfiguration of Thine only-begotten Son hast confirmed the mysteries of the faith by the testimony of the fathers and who, in the voice that came from the bright cloud, didst in a wonderful manner foreshow the adoption of sons, mercifully vouchsafe to make us coheirs with the King of His glory, and bring us to the enjoyment of the same; through the same, Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. Affirmation for the Day Sunday: Jesus of Nazareth is the beloved Chosen One of God; we are to listen to him. Monday: The Father acknowledges Jesus as the preeminent one in relation to the Law (Moses) and the Prophets (Elijah).
