Footnotes

  1. 29 Grk “their minds were hardened.”
  2. 30 Grk “the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant”; the phrase “they hear” has been introduced (“when they hear the old covenant read”) to make the link with the “Israelites” (v. 13) whose minds were closed (v. 14a) more obvious to the reader.
  3. 31 Or “only in Christ is it eliminated.”
