Matthew 17:10 in Context — Matthew 17

8 Ils levèrent les yeux, et ne virent que Jésus seul.

9 Comme ils descendaient de la montagne, Jésus leur donna cet ordre: Ne parlez à personne de cette vision, jusqu’à ce que le Fils de l’homme soit ressuscité des morts.

10 Les disciples lui firent cette question: Pourquoi donc les scribes disent-ils qu’Élie doit venir premièrement?

11 Il répondit: Il est vrai qu’Élie doit venir, et rétablir toutes choses.

12 Mais je vous dis qu’Élie est déjà venu, qu’ils ne l’ont pas reconnu, et qu’ils l’ont traité comme ils ont voulu. De même le Fils de l’homme souffrira de leur part.
