Exodus 34:33

33. Till Moses had done Rather, when he had done speaking, etc . Literally, And Moses ceased from speaking with them, and put upon his face a vail . So the vail was not worn while he was speaking, but when he left off speaking, and until he went into the tabernacle . Exodus 34:34-35. “The brilliant light on Moses’s face,” says Keil, “set forth the glory of the old covenant, and was intended both for Moses and the people as a foresight and a pledge of the glory to which Jehovah had called, and would eventually exalt, the people of his possession.”
