2 Corinthians 3:13-17

Therefore, since we have such a hope, we behave with great boldness,  and not like Moses who used to put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from staring at the result of the glory that was made ineffective.  But their minds were closed. For to this very day, the same veil remains when they hear the old covenant read. It has not been removed because only in Christ is it taken away.  But until this very day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their minds,  but when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is freedom.

Matthew 27:50-52 says, “And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life.” This is symbolic of the veil being taken away from our hearts and minds. Jesus is that freedom. The law given to Moses could not save Israel or the Gentiles, and it cannot reconcile us to God by itself. Only in turning to Jesus are we able to pass from death to life. Let the veil fall in your life. Revel in His loving grace and mercy, and His desire to use you for His glorious purposes. In 1 Corinthians 2:2 Paul says, “For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.”
