Even today when the proclamations of that old, bankrupt government are read out, they can’t see through it. Only Christ can get rid of the veil so they can see for themselves that there’s nothing there.

16–18Whenever, though, they turn to face God as Moses did, God removes the veil and there they are—face-to-face!
