2 CORINTHIANS 3:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But 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.”
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit — the final promise: Christians participate in Moses' privilege (seeing divine glory) but with unveiled face. The transformation (metamorphoumetha, we are being transformed) is ongoing, not instantaneous, moving from glory to glory (apo doxēs eis doxan). The Spirit effectuates this conformity to Christ.
