Explanation: Not long after healing the demoniac boy, Jesus took his disciples aside and told them for a second time about his death and resurrection. Prior to healing the demoniac boy he had been transfigured. Jesus framed these two events (the glory of his transfiguration and his power over Satanic forces) with warnings about his demise. Victory was coming; but before that, so was dire trouble and death. Depicted in the illumination above is the arrest of Jesus which was followed by his crucifixion and resurrection as he predicted in the Scriptures below.
