We are not like Moses. His face was shining, but he covered it to keep the people of Israel from seeing the brightness fade away.
Once again Jesus placed his hands on the man's eyes, and this time the man stared. His eyes were healed, and he saw everything clearly.
But Christ makes the Law no longer necessary for those who become acceptable to God by faith.
The Law of Moses brought only the promise of death, even though it was carved on stones and given in a wonderful way. Still the Law made Moses' face shine so brightly that the people of Israel could not look at it, even though it was a fading glory.
These things are only a shadow of what was to come. But Christ is real!
