Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ [Now if the ministration of death engraven in letters, on stones, was attended with such glory, that the children of Israel could not look steadily on the face of Moses, because of the temporary glory of his countenance; ⁸ shall not the ministration of the spirit be much more attended with glory? ⁹ For if that ministration of condemnation was attended with glory, much more doth this ministration of justification abound in glory. ¹⁰ For that indeed which was glorious, is in this respect not glorious because of this super-excellent glory. ¹¹ For if that which was temporary was with glory, much more shall this which is permanent be attended with glory.
