Dear David,

>you cite a reference to help me focus my search on this term? Also, anyone

>Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil (KALUMMA) is taken away.
There is a pretty good treatment of this subject in Anthony
Thiselton's commentary on 1 Corinthians in the New International
Greek Testament Commentary series.
Yours,
Harold Holmyard
