SIL Translator’s Notes on 2 Corinthians 3:14

3:14a But their minds were closed.

But their thinking was made dull/clouded,
-or-
But they became insensitive ⌊to what God wanted them to know⌋,

3:14b For to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant.

for to this day the same veil continues ⌊to dull their thinking⌋ when the old covenant/promise/agreement is read.
-or-
because from then until now the same dullness remains ⌊like a veil⌋ whenever someone reads the old covenant.

3:14c It has not been lifted,

That veil has not been removed,
-or-

God⌋ has not removed it,

3:14d because only in Christ can it be removed.

because only through Christ is it removed.
-or-
because ⌊God⌋ only removes the dullness ⌊when they believe⌋ in Christ.
