“For if what was made ineffective came with glory, how much more has what remains come in glory!”
“For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is in glory.”
“For if the order which was for a time had its glory, much more will the eternal order have its glory.”

And neither was it glorified by means of an excellent glory, though it was made illustrious in its own way.
For if even what was temporary has its glory, then what is lasting has an even greater glory.
Therefore, having such a hope, we act with much confidence,
and not as Moses did, in placing a veil over his face, so that the sons of Israel would not gaze intently at his face. This was ineffective,
