Inhaltsangabe
Discover how ancient Hebrew and Greek words for wind, breath, and spirit shaped biblical interpretation across centuries.
This scholarly study traces the meanings of the terms for wind, breath, and spirit from the oldest Hebrew writings through later Jewish and Christian literature. It shows how ideas about God, prophecy, wisdom, and personal identity evolved as the language developed.
Structured to map historical usage, the book explains how terms shifted in scope—from natural force to divine power, and from life to the inner life of the believer. It references key texts and authors to illuminate how readers in different eras understood these enduring concepts.
- How wind, breath, and spirit are used in the Old Testament and Apocrypha
- How later writers, including Philo and Paul, extended and reinterpreted these terms
- Connections between divine influence, wisdom, and the human spirit
Ideal for students of biblical languages, theology, and ancient near eastern literature seeking clear, source-grounded explanations.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a meticulous exploration of the profound evolution of the multifaceted concept of "spirit" in the Old Testament and the New Testament, spanning several hundred years of human history and religious ideas. The author focuses on the terms "ruaá ¥," translated as "spirit" or "wind" in the Old Testament, and "pneuma," rendered "spirit" in the New Testament. Through tracing the semantic shifts and nuances embedded in the usage of these terms, the book unveils how the concepts of divine power, human essence, and eschatological hope gradually unfolded and intertwined within biblical thought. By examining these concepts in their historical and literary context, this book not only sheds light on the development of biblical language but also invites readers to engage with the evolving understanding of the spiritual realm in the Western religious tradition. The book's thorough analysis and insights will appeal to scholars of biblical studies, theologians, and anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the origins and meanings of the concept of "spirit" in the Bible.
