Listen "#65 - A Deeper Unveiling of Glory, Man (2 Cor. 3)"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s discussion of 2 Cor. 3, we focus on Paul seeing the new covenant as a reality in the Corinthian Christians and our unveiled experience of God’s glory in comparison to Moses and the Israelites.
Questions discussed:
What are the “letters of recommendation” early in the passage?
How does Paul connect passages in Jeremiah and Ezekiel to the Corinthian believers to defend his ministry?
How does Paul view the law in relationship to grace and the gospel?
What is the difference between the veil of Moses and the removed veil for those in Christ?
What does it mean to behold the glory of the Lord with “unveiled face” (v. 18)?
How does 3:18 connect to the ancient yet ongoing conversation about theosis and deification? (resource given below)

Ps. 19:7-10
