Indeed, to this very day, when they hear the reading of the old covenant, the same veil is still there; it is not unveiled since in Christ it is set aside.(B) 15 Indeed, to this very day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their minds,[b] 16 but when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.(C) 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.(D) 18 And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.(E)
