Disciples’ Literal New Testament

He was putting a veil on his face so that the sons of Israel might not look-intently at the end[a] of the [face of glory][b] passing-away. 14 But[c] their minds were hardened[d], for until this very day the same[e] veil remains on the reading of the old covenant— it not being unveiled because[f] it passes-away[g] in Christ. 15 Indeed[h], until today whenever Moses is being read, a veil lies on their heart.
