Contextual Overview
1 Jesus then took Pete, James, and John with him up on a mountain.
2It was on this mountain that Jesus was changed completely. His face shone brighter than the noonday sun and his clothes turned bright white.
3All of a sudden, two great cowboys from the past, Moses and Elijah, stood there with them, visitin' with Jesus.
4Pete told Jesus, "I wouldn't have missed this for the world! I'm gonna put up three tents—one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
5While Pete was still runnin' his mouth, a big bright cloud surrounded everyone. A voice from the cloud said, "This is my Boy and I sure enough love him and he makes me proud. Listen to every word he says!"
6When Pete, James, and John heard this, they fell flat on the ground and whimpered like weaned pups.
7But Jesus reached down and helped them up and told them, "Don't be scared!"
8When they stood up, Jesus was the only one standin' there.
9As they rode down the mountain, Jesus told them, "Don't say anything about this to anyone until I have been raised from the dead."
10They asked him, "Why do the religious teachers say that old cowboy Elijah must come back first?"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jesus came and touched them,.... The disciples were at some little distance from Christ, but he observing the fear and surprise they were in, came to their relief and assistance; which he did not disdain to give, notwithstanding the glory he was covered with; but acts the part of a mediator between God and them, and lays hold on them to raise them up, whom the majesty of God's voice had cast down: the Persic version renders it, "he came and brought them to themselves"; who were just fainting and swooning away, at the awfulness of the voice:
and said, arise, and be not afraid: it is not the voice of an angry God, but of God well pleased with me, and in me with you; it is the voice of my God, and your God, of my Father, and your Father; arise, stand on your feet, take heart, and be of good courage, no hurt will come to you.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Matthew 17:7. Jesus came and touched them — Exactly parallel to this account is Daniel 8:18, I was in a deep sleep, i, e. (a trance) on my face towards the ground; but he TOUCHED me, and set me upright. From Jesus alone are we to expect Divine communications, and by his power only are we able to bear and improve them. It is very likely that this transfiguration took place in the night, which was a more proper season to show forth its glory than the day time, in which a part of the splendour must necessarily be lost by the presence of the solar light. Besides, St. Luke, Luke 9:37, expressly says, that it was on the next day after the transfiguration that our Lord came down from the mount.
