The F.O.G Message *

[4] Peter, overwhelmed but feeling compelled to speak, blurted out, "Lord, this is incredible! If You want, I'll set up three shelters right here—one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." Like many of us, he felt the need to do something in the face of divine mystery.

Young's Literal Translation
