Before the dreadful day of the Lord, could also mean during the "Acceptable year of the Lord ", which leads to the "Day of vengeance of our God " Luke 4:17-20; Isaiah 61:2 (a,b,c). Isaiah 63:4; Revelation 20; "to comfort all that mourn". The two witnesses are the next prophets to come and they represent Israel and the Church: Daniel, who completes the prophecy which he couldn't understand, and Apostle John, who revealed the Messiah to Him.

Moses and Elijah both didn't finish their commission- they were so overwhelmed and then asked God to kill them. Moses died but God hid the body of Moses from he who had the power of death and hell- Satan! Elijah was taken up into heaven in a whirlwind. It is appointed to man, once to die and then judgment! Elijah killed 850 prophets of Baal and Asherah single handedly, probably cutting off their heads, so he paid the same way, losing his head the same way. They were restored by grace: Moses finally stepped on the promised land, and Elijah got back his complete body! They both came to encourage Jesus Christ not to give up, when He was finally faced with the event which will usher him into the beginning of his suffering. The trap of the naked young man, Mark 14, set up by the chief priests, scribes and the elders, to tarnish His image as the Son of God, and the Son of David- the King of Israel, which hindered their own agenda. The event on the mount of Transfiguration, completed the works of "The Law, and the Prophets", and confirmation of Jesus Alone as the ONLY Begotten Son of God, sent to ransom and redeem and restore man back to fellowship with God the Father, in Himself. There's no other name by which man might be saved, but the name of Jesus Christ. He alone has the Father sealed! Acts 4:12; John 6:27b. The reason Moses and Elijah met with Jesus Christ was because the fate of the whole creation was resting on Him. Matthew 21, God had sent Moses, Elijah but Jesus Christ His Son, was man's last hope. If He didn't finish the commission, then man is eternally doomed! He was man's last hope! He actually nearly rejected it when the weight of what He had to go through to get to be crucified actually dawned on Him, He asked the Father if there's a way the "cup" could pass over Him. But, as it is written, He, as the Son of God, bowed to the will of the Father, HE obeyed even till the death on the cross! Hebrews 5:8-14!

I Jst had what felt like a weird dream rn after cleaning, I closed my eyes on my bed for literally only 10 minutes or so & I seen a large robe & heard a voice saying if you see this friend don’t leave him because he is Elijah, I have no idea what that means & it would mean a lot if anyone can help further explain
