²⁷ For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, ^(A)because they did not know Him, nor even the voices of the Prophets which are read every Sabbath, have fulfilled them in condemning Him.

¹⁷ “Yet now, brethren, I know that ^(A)you did it in ignorance, as did also your rulers.

²⁵ For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be ^(A)wise in your own ^[a]opinion, that ^(B)blindness in part has happened to Israel ^(C)until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

²² Therefore, having obtained help from God, to this day I stand, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those ^(A)which the prophets and ^(B)Moses said would come— ^23 (C)that the Christ would suffer, ^(D)that He would be the first to rise from the dead, and ^(E)would proclaim light to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.”

²¹ For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, ^(A)being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”

²⁴ And ^(A)certain of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said; but Him they did not see.”

²⁵ Then He said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! ^26 (B)Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His ^(C)glory?” ²⁷ And beginning at ^(D)Moses and ^(E)all the Prophets, He ^[a]expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

^20 (A)and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.

⁴ whose minds ^(A)the god of this age ^(B)has blinded, who do not believe, lest ^(C)the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, ^(D)who is the image of God, should shine on them.

¹⁴ But ^(A)their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.
