‏ 2 Corinthians 3:10

In this respect ( εν τουτω τω μερε ). The glory on the face of Moses was temporary, though real, and passed away (verse 7), a type of the dimming of the glory of the old dispensation by the brightness of the new. The moon makes a dim light after the sun rises, "is not glorified" ( ου δεδοξαστα, perfect passive indicative of δοξαζω ).

By reason of the glory that surpasseth ( εινεκεν της υπερβαλλουσης δοξης ). The surpassing ( υπερ-βαλλω, throwing beyond) glory. Christ as the Sun of Righteousness has thrown Moses in the shade. Cf. the claims of superiority by Christ in Mt 5-7.
