2 Corinthians 3:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ The ·law [or old system; ^Lministry] that brought death was ·written in words [^Lengraved with letters] on stone. It came with ·God’s glory [^Lglory], which made Moses’ face so ·bright [glorious] that the ·Israelites [^Lchildren of Israel] could not ·continue to look [gaze] at it. But that glory ·later disappeared [was fading; or was made ineffective (by the veil on his face)]. ⁸ So ·surely [^Lwill not…?] the ·new way that brings [^Lministry of] the Spirit has even more glory. ⁹ [^LFor] If the ·law that judged people guilty of sin [^Lministry of condemnation] had glory, surely the ·new way that makes people right with God [^Lministry of righteousness] has much greater glory.
