Context Readings

New Covenant Ministry

7 But if the ministry of death in the letter engraved in stones was glorious, so that the sons of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance which glory was to fade away, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? 9 For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, much more shall the ministry of righteousness abound in glory.
