What does the Bible say about seeing God's glory?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that no one can see God's face and live, but His glory can be understood through His revelations and ultimately in Jesus Christ.

In Exodus 33:18-20, Moses asks God to show him His glory, to which God responds that no man can see His face and live. This illustrates the profound holiness and otherness of God, who is incomprehensible in His fullness. However, God's glory is revealed verbally and intimately, as seen in how He spoke with Moses face to face. Ultimately, the highest revelation of God’s glory is found in the person of Jesus Christ, as stated in John 1:14, where we see His glory as the only begotten Son full of grace and truth.
