This appears to me to be the general sense of this verse: its peculiar terms may be more particularly explained.
By the energy of that Spirit of Christ which gives life and being to all the promises of the Gospel and thus we are made partakers of the Divine nature and escape all the corruptions that are in the world. But we all, with open face - The Jews were not able to look on the face of Moses, the mediator of the old covenant, and therefore he was obliged to veil it but all we Christians, with face uncovered, behold, as clearly as we can see our own natural face in a mirror, the glorious promises and privileges of the Gospel of Christ and while we contemplate, we anticipate them by desire and hope, and apprehend them by faith, and are changed from the glory there represented to the enjoyment of the thing which is represented, even the glorious image-righteousness and true holiness-of the God of glory.Īs by the Spirit of the Lord.
