3:1 Following the new agreement by the spirit
3 Oh, are we beginning to pat ourselves on the back again? Don’t we need written references for you all, or from you all, like some others do? 2 It’s all of you who’re our references, and having been written in our hearts, it’s known about and being read by all people. 3 [ref]It shows that you who were served by us, are now Messiah’s letter that wasn’t written with ink but with God’s living spirit—not written on stone tablets but on people’s hearts.
4 We have such confidence towards God through the messiah, 5 not that we ourselves are worthy to consider ourselves anything special, but our qualifications come from God. 6 [ref]He qualified us as servants of a new agreement—not following it by the letter, but by the spirit, because following by the letter leads to death whereas following by the spirit gives life.
7 [ref]The system which was inscribed on stone tablets and which results in death was so incredible when it was given that the Israeli’s couldn’t even bring themselves to look at Mosheh’ face because it shone so brightly. But if that system is being nullified, 8 won’t this system via the spirit be even greater? 9 If the system that brought condemnation was incredible, how much greater is the system that leads to righteousness, 10 because that earlier system seems ordinary now when compared with the more incredible greatness of the new system, 11 and if what ended up being replaced was incredible, how much more incredible is the system that lasts.
12 So then, since that’s our expectation, we can be very bold, 13 [ref]not just like Mosheh putting a veil over his face because the Israeli’s couldn’t even look at him when introducing a system that would be replaced. 14 But their thinking was inflexible because even until this very day, the same veil remains during the public reading of the Hebrew scriptures—it’s not opened up because it’s only Messiah that nullifies it. 15 So these days whenever Mosheh’ writings are being read, a veil lies across their hearts, 16 [ref]but whenever that heart might turn towards the master, the veil will be removed. 17 Now the master is the spirit, and there’s freedom wherever the master’s spirit is. 18 All of us who’ve had our faces unveiled are reflecting the master’s greatness, and that same image transforms us from greatness to greatness. This comes from the master who is the spirit.
Exo 24:12:
24:12 Mosheh’s long stay on Mt. Sinai
12 Then Yahweh told Mosheh, “Come up to me on the mountain and wait there, and I will give you some stone slabs with the rules and regulations that I have written on them so you can to teach them to the people.”
Jer 31:33:
Eze 11:19:
36:26:
Jer 31:31:
Exo 34:29:
29 So when Mosheh came down from Mt. Sinai, he was carrying the two stone slabs with the transcript of the ten commands, but what he didn’t know as he descended was that the skin on his face was shining after his talking with Yahweh.[ref]
Exo 34:33:
33 Then when he’d finished talking to them, Mosheh put a veil over his face,
Exo 34:34:
34 and whenever he would go in to speak with Yahweh, he would remove the veil until he came out. Whenever he did come out, he’d tell the Israelis what he’d been instructed,
