‏ Exodus 34:33

v. 33: When Moses finished speaking with the people, he put a veil over his face ( a). This teaches us to be modest and not to show off the honors or gifts God gives us. We should not try to gain attention or praise from others. For leaders and teachers, it is important to communicate in ways that people can understand and handle. The veil also symbolized that the full meaning of God’s law was hidden at that time and would only be fully revealed later through Jesus Christ ( b).
