2 Corinthians 3:17
_ _ the Lord — Christ (2 Corinthians 3:14, 2 Corinthians 3:16; 2 Corinthians 4:5).
_ _ is that Spirit — is THE Spirit, namely, that Spirit spoken of in 2 Corinthians 3:6, and here resumed after the parenthesis (2 Corinthians 3:7-16): Christ is the Spirit and “end” of the Old Testament, who giveth life to it, whereas “the letter killeth” (1 Corinthians 15:45; Revelation 19:10, end).
_ _ where the Spirit of the Lord is — in a man’s “heart” (2 Corinthians 3:15; Romans 8:9, Romans 8:10).
_ _ there is liberty — (John 8:36). “There,” and there only. Such cease to be slaves to the letter, which they were while the veil was on their heart. They are free to serve God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:3): they have no longer the spirit of bondage, but of free sonship (Romans 8:15; Galatians 4:7). “Liberty” is opposed to the letter (of the legal ordinances), and to the veil, the badge of slavery: also to the fear which the Israelites felt in beholding Moses’ glory unveiled (Exodus 34:30; 1 John 4:18). |
2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the Lord — Christ is that Spirit of the law whereof I speak, to which the letter was intended to lead. And where the Spirit of the Lord, Christ, is, there is liberty — Not the veil, the emblem of slavery. There is liberty from servile fear, liberty from the guilt and from the power of sin, liberty to behold with open face the glory of the Lord. |
2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the (n) Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty.
(n) Christ is that Spirit who takes away that covering, by working in our hearts, to which also the Law itself called us, though in vain, because it speaks to dead men, until the Spirit makes us alive. |
- the Lord:
2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.
1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit.

- where:
Psalms 51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me [with thy] free spirit.
Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD [is] upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to [them that are] bound;
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Romans 8:15-16 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. ... The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Galatians 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
