2 Corintios 3:14

14 (Y así los sentidos de ellos se embotaron; porque hasta el día de hoy les queda el mismo velo no descubierto en la lección del Antiguo Testamento, el cual en Cristo es quitado.

2 Corintios 3:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 3:14

But their minds were blinded
This confirms the sense given of the foregoing verse, and shows, that not the Israelites only in Moses's time, but the Jews in the times of the Gospel, had their minds so blinded, that they could not behold the glory of the Gospel, nor Christ the end of the law; see ( Romans 11:7 Romans 11:8 Romans 11:25 ) .

For until this day,
to this very time,

remaineth the same veil untaken away;
not the selfsame veil that was on Moses's face, but the veil of blindness, darkness, and ignorance, upon the hearts of the Jews:

in the reading of the Old Testament;
the books of the Old Testament, which were used to be read in their synagogues every sabbath day; the true spiritual meaning of which, as they respect Christ and the Gospel dispensation, they understood not; of which darkness, the veil on the face of Moses was a type and emblem:

which veil is done away in Christ;
can only be removed by Christ, by his Spirit and grace, and through the light of the Gospel of Christ, shining into the heart; and so dispel that blindness and ignorance which is in the understanding; whereby the books of the Old Testament are understood, and appear to agree exactly with the Gospel of Christ, in the books of the New Testament.

2 Corintios 3:14 In-Context

12 Así que, teniendo tal esperanza, hablamos con mucha confianza;

13 y no como Moisés, que ponía un velo sobre su faz, para que los hijos de Israel no pusiesen los ojos en su cara, cuya gloria había de perecer.

14 (Y así los sentidos de ellos se embotaron; porque hasta el día de hoy les queda el mismo velo no descubierto en la lección del Antiguo Testamento, el cual en Cristo es quitado.

15 Y aun hasta el día de hoy, cuando Moisés es leído, el velo está puesto sobre el corazón de ellos.

16 Pero cuando se conviertan al Señor, el velo se quitará.)
