2 Corinthians 3 — Context

10

For verily that which hath been made glorious hath not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasseth.

11

For if that which passeth away was with glory, much more that which remaineth is in glory.

12

Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,

13

andarenot as Moses, whoput a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel should not look stedfastly on the end of that which was passing away:

14

but their minds were hardened: for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remaineth, it not being revealed to them that it is done away in Christ.

15

But unto this day, whensoever Moses is read, a veil lieth upon their heart.

16

But whensoever it shall turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
