NWT* Bible Passages to Ponder: 2 Cor. 3:12-18

Thought provoking …

First, the definition of “ponder” from google.com:

2 Corinthians 3:12-18 (New World Translation [NWT]*)

12  Since we have such a hope, we are using great freeness of speech, 

13  and not doing what Moses did when he would put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel might not gaze intently at the end of what was to be done away with. 

14  But their minds were dulled. For to this present day, the same veil remains unlifted when the old covenant is read, because it is taken away only by means of Christ. 

15  In fact, to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies upon their hearts. 

16  But when one turns to Jehovah, the veil is taken away.

17  Now Jehovah is the Spirit, and where the spirit of Jehovah is, there is freedom. 

18  And all of us, while we with unveiled faces reflect like mirrors the glory of Jehovah, are transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, exactly as it is done by Jehovah the Spirit.

How does holy spirit, a force like electricity, lacking in personhood, relate to this passage?
