Let us behold the grace of our Redeemer, compared with that of Moses and far surpassing it. For, to compare the new for a little with the old: the former came to this people with veiled face, the latter with hidden divinity; the former horned with sublimity, the latter meek with humility; the former's countenance shining with rays and splendor, the latter's to be defiled with spittle and slaughter: the former's human face a fellow servant did not deserve to see, but a leper gazed upon the latter's divine face.
