Questions: - letter that kills? The written laws/rules condemning people- do this and die, but Jesus came to enable us to be able to reach that standard by His power an - Verse 12-13? Paul the Apostle says that because believers now have a greater hope through Christ, they can live and speak with boldness, unlike under the old covenant. He explains that Moses’ veil not only covered his shining face (as in Exodus) but also symbolized the fading and temporary nature of that glory. In contrast, the new covenant has lasting and fully revealed glory. Paul adds that many people still have a “veil” over their hearts, but when they turn to the Lord, it is removed so they can see the truth clearly.
