What is the significance of Moses placing a veil over his face?

Answered in 1 source

Moses' veil symbolizes the blindness of those who do not see Christ in the law.

When Moses placed a veil over his face after speaking with God, it symbolized the spiritual blindness that covers the hearts of those who do not recognize the end of the law as Christ. Even today, many read the scriptures but remain veiled, unable to see that the law points to Christ as their only hope of salvation. Paul highlights this in 2 Corinthians, explaining that the veil is removed in Christ, allowing believers to see the glory of God clearly. Once our hearts are turned to the Lord, this blindness lifts, enabling us to fully understand and appreciate the grace and truth found in the New Covenant through Christ, where the law is fulfilled and righteousness is granted to believers.
