The mystery of the transfiguration of the material world is closely linked to another
great mystery: the mystery of the Eucharist, where a piece of the earth is transformed
( transubstantiated) into the risen and glorified body of Christ. How is it possible that
the flesh (matter) becomes divine? " They kept the matter to themselves, questioning
what the rising from the dead meant " ( Mk 9:10). This mysterious truth must be "taught
by the Spirit" ( 1 Cor 2: 13) only.
