Mark 9:14

12 He replied, “Elijah does indeed come first, and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected?

13 But I tell you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”

When they returned to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

15 As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were filled with awe and ran to greet Him.

16 “What are you disputing with them?” He asked.
