The
Just shall live by Faith
Studies of 'Holy Ghost', 'Holy
Spirit', 'Spirit', and 'spirit'
Volume
2, Study 5
To my knowledge, only the King James
Version in the New Testament makes a
distinction in passages containing the Greek words "holy
spirit"
by translating in some verses 'Holy Ghost' and in other verses 'Holy Spirit'. When you read the file 'Holy Ghost' you will
begin to see why those translators did so. Therefore, I have made one
file 'Holy Ghost' and another file 'Holy Spirit', etc.
Each file
is composed of every
verse containing the word(s) that you can see in the file's title.
Therefore, each file is a list of all the verses containg the word. I
am
putting the files all under one heading (i.e. Volume 2, Study 5) on the
Bible Studies master page because they should be studied as a whole and
in sequence (beginning with 'Holy Ghost') to receive any significant
implications and inferences
which the Lord might have for you buried in these many passages...and
there are many.
I used the software,
e-Sword
(you can find its Internet reference on our Ministry Links page), to
search for the verses in each category in the New Testament and
later I did the same for the Old Testament. Then I used e-Sword
(using the KJV with
Strong's Numbers) to look at each verse in each file to see
Strong's definitions of some of the other words in the verse...some of
which offer meanings clearer than is in the translation itself.
(You will soon catch on to my method as you get into the first
study, 'Holy Ghost'.)
I began
this
work for myself in December 2009. Since I am busy with
other
things, the work on all the files took about five weeks with me going
through them twice and Barbara proof reading and correcting them.
Still, it has turned out to be quite interesting (to me at
least). Therefore, I have decided to go ahead and put this on our
website in case
any visitors are interested.
The categories listed below are links and each will take you to its file.
PS. My commenting began with the file 'Holy
Ghost' . Thus, all of my comments in the other files are based upon and
are connected with the first comments.
So it is best to begin with the 'Holy Ghost' file if you want to
understand my comments. Even should the reader ignore my comments,
these files offer every word of 'spirit' in any form in the entire
Bible. Therefore, this overall study is a good referrence for those
words and the verses where they are found.
New Testament: 'Holy
Ghost', 'Holy Spirit', 'Spirit', 'spirit'
Old Testament: 'spirit' in all of its forms
