Transfer means it scans the dialplan (again if it's the same context) with the new destination_number until it encounters a "bridge" (or other application) which will connect a-leg to b-leg (or an internal FS application)

In a typicall call scenario bridge connects the inbound leg A to on outbound

Transfer can select a new context (think: class of service) and make another
pass through the associated dialplan.

That's a very simplified explanation, but it gets to the core difference.
