2 Corinthians 3:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 3:15

But even unto this day, when Moses is read
These words are an explanation of the former, and show that by the Old Testament is designed, more especially, Moses, or the writings of Moses; which were frequently read, and preached upon in the Jewish synagogues; see ( Acts 13:15 ) ( 15:21 ) and that by "the veil untaken away", is meant,

the veil upon their heart;
that is, the veil of blindness, ignorance of Christ, and the Gospel; of the prophecies of the Old Testament, and even of the law itself, its nature, use, and end; preferring the traditions of their fathers, before the written law of Moses.

2 Corinthians 3:15 In-Context

13 And are not like Moses, who put a veil on his face, so that the children of Israel might not see clearly to the end of the present order of things:

14 But their minds were made hard: for to this very day at the reading of the old agreement the same veil is still unlifted; though it is taken away in Christ.

15 But to this day, at the reading of the law of Moses, a veil is over their heart.

16 But when it is turned to the Lord, the veil will be taken away.

17 Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there the heart is free.
