As compared with the gospel, the Law has lost its glory

Lucas Cranach - The Law and the Gospel


“For even that which was made glorious [the Law] had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.” 
2 Corinthians 3:10

“The English expresses it very fairly. ‘In this point,’ as compared with the gospel, the Law has lost its glory; it is thrown into the shade by ‘the glory that excelleth.’”

Ellicott’s Commentary on the Bible

“There is such an excelling glory in the Gospel, that the other [the Law] is swallowed up and lost in it.”

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible
