A good example is Moses' theophany in Exodus, where God passes by and let's Moses see His back. It's hard to say for sure, but personally I suspect Moses saw Jesus in anticipation of the Incarnation.

The coolest theological speculation I've heard is that Moses' theophany, Elijah's encounter with the "still, small voice," and Jesus' Transfiguration were all the same event, transcending time and space.

Here's a question for you:

In what way does time exist, do you think? Does only the present truly exist? Does the past continue to exist after it happens? Do past, present, and future all exist at once within some larger substrate?

Never thought much about it or studied it

My current conception lol

That's more or less how I think of it. From the perspective of eternity all of time is there at once, but that doesn't make the fact that time is linear and that we move through it any less real.

(I love the diagram btw)

That is cool. So I guess moses was standing behind Jesus and Elijah was standing in front of him? Haha

Haha maybe so. IIRC, the Gospels don't say precisely in what orientation Moses and Elijah were standing relative to Jesus 😁
