33
When Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.
34
But when Moses went in before Yahweh to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
35
The children of Israel saw Moses' face, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
4
For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
7
But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which was passing away:
13
and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face, that the children of Israel wouldn't look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.
23
But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24
So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
14
For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,
15
having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;
17
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.
1
For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
2
Or else wouldn't they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
3
But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.
4
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
5
Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, "Sacrifice and offering you didn't desire, but you prepared a body for me;
6
You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.
7
Then I said, 'Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.'"
8
Previously saying, "Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn't desire, neither had pleasure in them" (those which are offered according to the law),
9
then he has said, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,
Ici donc, Paul s'empare d'un autre détail de l'histoire de Moïse qu'il a déjà citée, afin d'en tirer de nouvelles vérités sur la différence des deux économies et sur la supériorité du ministère de l'Evangile.
Moïse, nous est-il dit, (Exode 34.33) dans le moment solennel auquel Paul fait allusion, mit un voile sur son visage. Dans quel but ? Nous lisons ci-dessus (verset 7) que les enfants d'Israël ne pouvaient arrêter leurs regards sur le visage de Moïse (à cause de leur faiblesse, de leur sens charnel) ; ici, Paul déclare que Moïse se voile pour que les enfants d'Israël n'arrêtent pas leurs regards sur la fin de ce phénomène passager, dans lequel l'apôtre voit une image de toute l'économie ancienne, destinée à être transformée.
Israël n'était préparé alors ni à contempler l'éclat de cette manifestation, ni à en voir la fin qui l'aurait rempli de défiance envers Moïse : telle était aussi la disposition de ce peuple à l'égard de toute l'économie ancienne ; il n'en comprenait ni la gloire, ni la disparition future, il fallait lui voiler l'une et l'autre.
Tous ceux qui, sous les symboles et les types, ne savaient pas voir les choses signifiées, qui confondaient les formes passagères avec les réalités éternelles, qui ne comprenaient pas que les fleurs et les fruits contenus dans le bouton devaient un jour s'épanouir, tous ces faibles en la foi (et c'était alors le plus grand nombre) avaient encore à faire leur éducation religieuse ; la révélation était voilée pour eux ; ils ignoraient qu'un jour toute cette économie ancienne viendrait s'absorber et s'accomplir dans une nouvelle.
- Rien de pareil, conclut l'apôtre, dans le ministère du Nouveau Testament Ici la gloire du Seigneur est apparue dans toute sa plénitude, elle resplendit dans le cœur des croyants et les transforme à son image. (versets 17,18)
