2 Corinthians 3:11
_ _ was glorious — literally, “was with glory”; or “marked by glory.”
_ _ that which remaineth — abideth (Revelation 14:6). Not “the ministry,” but the Spirit, and His accompaniments, life and righteousness.
_ _ is glorious — literally, “is in glory.” The Greek “with” or “by” is appropriately applied to that of which the glory was transient. “In” to that of which the glory is permanent. The contrast of the Old and New Testaments proves that Paul’s chief opponents at Corinth were Judaizers. |
2 Corinthians 3:11
That which remaineth — That dispensation which remains to the end of the world; that spirit and life which remain for ever. |
2 Corinthians 3:11
For if that which is (l) done away [was] glorious, much more that which remaineth [is] glorious.
(l) The Law, indeed, and the ten commandments themselves, together with Moses, are all abolished, if we consider the ministry of Moses apart by itself. |

2 Corinthians 3:7 But if the ministration of death, written [and] engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which [glory] was to be done away:
Romans 5:20-21 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: ... That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
Hebrews 7:21-25 (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:) ... Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Hebrews 8:13 In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old [is] ready to vanish away.
Hebrews 12:25-29 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], if we turn away from him that [speaketh] from heaven: ... For our God [is] a consuming fire.

- much:
