2 Corinthians 3:12 Context
10For euen that which was made glorious, had no glorie in this respect by reason of the glorie that excelleth. 11For if that which is done away, was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious. 12Seeing then that wee haue such hope, we vse great plainnesse of speech. 13And not as Moses, which put a vaile ouer his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly looke to the end of that which is abolished; 14But their mindes were blinded: for vntill this day remaineth the same vaile vntaken away, in the reading of the old testament: which vaile is done away in Christ.
