Context Readings

New Covenant Ministry

7 Now if the administration of death which was engraved in letters of stone, was invested with glory ??so much so, that the children of Israel could not gaze at the face of Moses on account of the dazzling glory that was fading from his face; 8 surely the administration of the Spirit must be invested with still greater glory. 9 If there was glory in the administration that condemned, then the administration that acquits abounds far more in glory
