Matthew 17:5-8 (ESV Strong's)
5 He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” 6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified. 7 But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.” 8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
The old covenant taught the children of God to fear Him. To obey Him because He a mighty and fearful God.
Jesus says to “Rise, and have no fear.” Love casts out all fear, for it is the greatest thing and the power of God.
