* The Greek word translated as "transformed" is <i>metamorphoo</i> (a cousin of the English word "metamorphosis"), which means to change to another form. The word is rare in the New Testament.

+
== Exegesis ==
+
* Paul's use of the word <i>metamorphoo</i> in verse 2 may suggest a transformation greater than we can imagine. It is used only three other times in the New Testament: in [[Matt 17:2|Matthew 17:2]] and [[Mark 9:2|Mark 9:2]] to discuss Jesus' change at the Transfiguration, and in [[2 Cor 3:18|2 Corinthians 3:18]] explain our transformation from glory to glory in the image of God.
