Contextual Overview

1 I declare unto you, said he, that some of you here present shall not die, till they see the kingdom of the Messiah usher'd in with power. 2 Six days after Jesus took Peter, James and John, and accompanied them up a high mountain in private; and was transfigured in their presence. 3 his raiment was of an exceeding bright whiteness, like that of snow, and such as no fuller upon earth could imitate. 4 Moses and Elias likewise appear'd, and were in conference with Jesus. 5 then Peter thus address'd himself to Jesus, master, it is proper for us to be here: let us make therefore three tabernacles, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elias. 6 for he knew not what he said, they were all so frightned. 7 then a cloud surrounded them, and a voice from the cloud, said, "this is my beloved son, hear him." 8 and instantly looking round about, they did not see any other person but Jesus with them. 9 as they were going down the mountain, he order'd them not to tell any body what they had seen, till the son of man was raised from the dead: 10 an expression which they dwelt upon, asking one another the meaning of "till he was raised from the dead."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And as they came down from the mountain,.... Christ and his three disciples, Peter, James, and John, whom he led up thither:

he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen; on the mount, as the transfiguration of himself, the persons of Moses and Elias, and the bright cloud from whence the voice came, which bore testimony of Christ's sonship: he ordered to keep the whole of this a secret from every man, even from their fellow disciples,

till the Son of man were risen from the dead;

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And after six days ... - See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 17:1-9.

Mark 9:6

He wist not - He “knew not.” He was desirous of saying something, and he knew not what would be proper.
