2 Corinthians 3:17 in context
15But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.

17Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD.
