“When Moses finished speaking with them, he covered his face with a veil. But whenever he went into the Tent of Meeting to speak with the LORD, he would remove the veil until he came out again. Then he would give the people whatever instructions the LORD had given him, and the people of Israel would see the radiant glow of his face. So he would put the veil over his face until he returned to speak with the LORD.”
Exodus 34:33-35 NLT
In my reading this morning, I thought gee the laws & sacrifices the children of Israel went through were tedious. Then I looked at them in another way, all these laws & sacrifices were fulfilled in Jesus. When reading the Old Testament look for the thread of blood pointing to the fulfillment in the sacrifice of the unblemished lamb, Jesus. The veil that Moses covered his face with because it shone so brightly and the veil that covered the entry from the Holy Place into the Holy of Holies was spit into when Jesus proclaimed from the cross “it is finished”. Now we come directly to our God, not through sacrificial means but through the perfect sacrifice, Jesus, the lamb slain before the foundation of the world. The entry is not blocked, the veil is split, it’s free to enter for all who will come. It’s called the grace period. The sacrifices have been fulfilled! Grace, wonderful grace coming down from the father above…..
