1) It’s the same veil that separated people from seeing God present when they read the Old Covenant. It's because their minds are closed. People cannot understand when we show them various things in the Old Testament because their minds have not been enlightened. Their minds are closed. They have not turned to the Lord and do not understand what He is saying. Or how it all fits into the scheme of things.
2) The key to the understanding is that minds can only be opened, and the veil can only be removed in Christ. When we turn to Jesus, we begin to understand what we read in the Old Testament. And we see through the power of the Holy Spirit how they apply to our lives. This veil, covering, and closing are only removed through Jesus Christ.
3) Think about when you became a viable Christian. That’s when the Bible became more than a recital. That’s when you figured out that the Word of God actually speaks to you. Luke 24:24 > Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.
