In the context of the Transfiguration of Jesus (Matthew 17:1-13, Mark 9:2-13, Luke 9:28-36), Elijah and Moses appear in glory and speak with Jesus about his:

Departure
In this context, "departure" refers to Jesus' upcoming:

- *Death and resurrection*: His departure from this world, which would be accomplished through his crucifixion and resurrection.
- *Ascension*: His eventual return to heaven, where he would sit at the right hand of God.

The Greek word used in the New Testament for "departure" in this context is "exodus" (ἔξοδος), which specifically refers to Jesus' departure from this world, emphasizing the redemptive nature of his mission [1].

Jesus's departure is the ascension of Jesus into heaven. I've attempted this question about three times and the answers were 'ascension of Jesus unto heaven', how come it now changed all of a sudden?😕😟
