Greek Commentary for Mark 9:9
Matthew has “until” (heōs hou). [source]
Second aorist active subjunctive. More exactly, “should rise” (punctiliar aorist and futuristic, not with any idea of perfect tense). Luke 9:36 merely says that they told no man any of these things. It was a high and holy secret experience that the chosen three had had for their future good and for the good of all. [source]
Mark's word is more graphic than Matthew's εἴπητε . The word is from διά , through, and ἡγέομαι , to lead the way. Hence to lead one through a series of events: to narrate. [source]
Wyc., asking. Tynd., disputing. [source]

The preposition παρά (with, by the side of )implies taketh along with himself, or conducteth. It is the same word which all three evangelists use of our Lord's taking his chosen apostles to the Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1; Mark 9:9; Luke 9:28). [source]
Same adjective in Mark 9:8; Matthew 17:8 translated “only.” Should be rendered “alone” there also.They held their peace (εσιγησαν esigēsan). Ingressive aorist active of common verb σιγαω sigaō became silent. In Mark 9:9; Matthew 17:9, Jesus commanded them not to tell till His Resurrection from the dead. Luke notes that they in awe obeyed that command and it turns out that they finally forgot the lesson of this night‘s great experience. By and by they will be able to tell them, but not “in those days.”Which they had seen Attraction of the relative α ha into the case of the unexpressed antecedent τουτων toutōn Perfect active indicative εωρακαν heōrakan with Koiné (papyri) form for the ancient εωρακασιν heōrakāsin changed by analogy to the first aorist ending in -αν an instead of -ασιν asin f0).

Lit. the time will fail me telling: if I tell. See on Mark 9:9, and comp. Mark 5:16; Luke 8:39; Luke 9:10; Acts 9:27, and διήγησις narrative(A.V. declaration ), Luke 1:1. Gideon, etc. These names of the four judges are not enumerated in chronological order. Samuel is closely connected with David as in the history, but with τε καὶ as introducing the new order of the prophets. [source]
