2 Corinthians 3:7-16

The ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, came with such splendor that the children of Israel could not continue looking at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance. And that glory was fading. How much more glorious will be the ministry of the SPIRIT? For if the ministry which brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious will be the ministry which makes a person right with GOD? Yes, the law was glorious, but it pales in comparison to the superior glory. The glory of that which remains is greater than the glory of that which is abolished. Therefore, since we have such hope, we are free to be bold of speech. Not as Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel would not keep looking until the brightness faded. They were closed-minded, for to this day the veil remains at the reading of the Old Testament; and it can only be removed in CHRIST. And to this day, when the law of Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But when one turns to the LORD, the veil is removed!
