Jesus speaks to Peter, James and John after the Transfiguration on Mount Tabor. "As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, 'Don't tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead'" (Matthew 17:9). Detail (with unfortunate light placement) of the Passion Window, the left lancet window beneath the west rose. One of only four windows dating from before 1150, it depicts scenes from the end of Christ's life, his passion and his resurrection.
