vs 27 and 28 are not talking about the exact same event.
vs 27 is referring to his coming in the glory with his angels, i.e. his return after his resurrection that was to come.
The coming referred to in
v 28 is a the same manifestation Deacon Blues referred to earlier... "Peter, who was there, indicates in
II Peter 1:16-18 that, at this holy mount, they witnessed the "power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" as follows:
"For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and
COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. (17) For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. (18) And this voice which came from heaven we heard,
WHEN WE WERE WITH HIM IN THE HOLY MOUNT.""
