¹⁸ They ^(A)are darkened in their understanding, ^(B)alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to ^(C)their hardness of heart.

⁵¹ And behold, ^(A)the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And ^(B)the earth shook, and the rocks were split.

The Full Assurance of Faith

^19 (A)Therefore, brothers,^[a] since we have confidence to enter ^(B)the holy places by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰ by ^(C)the new and living way that he opened for us through ^(D)the curtain, that is, through his flesh, ²¹ and since we have ^(E)a great priest over the house of God,

¹³ not like Moses, ^(A)who would put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze at the outcome of what was being brought to an end. ¹⁴ But ^(B)their minds were ^(C)hardened. For to this day, ^(D)when they read ^(E)the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away. ¹⁵ Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their hearts. ¹⁶ But when ^(F)one^[a] turns to the Lord, ^(G)the veil is removed. ¹⁷ Now the Lord^[b] is the Spirit, and where ^(H)the Spirit of the Lord is, there is ^(I)freedom. ¹⁸ And we all, with unveiled face, ^(J)beholding ^(K)the glory of the Lord,^{[c] (L)}are being transformed into the same image ^(M)from one degree of glory to another.^[d] For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
