Greetings Nathaniel, The Nelson Study Bible has a special word study on "soul".. "(Heb. nephesh) (Psalm 11:5; 103:1-2, Lev. 26:30; Isaiah 1:14; 42:1; Jer. 5:9; 15:1) Strong's #5315: This Hebrew word occurs more than 750 times in the Bible. It has quite a number of meanings, but most of them can be reduced to the following three categories: (1) life for the life force, especially in connection with blood (Gen. 9:4,5; Lev. 17:11,14); (2) one's soul or the immaterial being, the seat of intellect and emotion (Psalm 42:1-2; 86:4; 1 Sam. 1:10; 2 Sam. 5:8; Prov. 23:7; Song of Solomon 1:7); and (3) an individual or person (84:2; Gen. 2:7; Judg. 12:3; Ezek. 18:4). Originally the word probably referred to the breath (Job 41:21). The Bible typically considers a person as an interconnected whole. This is why the Bible tells us to love God with all our heart, soul, and strength- in other words, with our entire being (Deut. 6:4-5; Josh. 22:5)." (1) As for all living things having a soul, the only verse that I have found that alludes to this is Revelation 18:13, which states, "..bodies and souls of men" [NKJV] drawing the meaning that only humans have souls. "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who is wise wins souls." Proverbs 11:30 Blessings to you, Makarios (1) The Nelson Study Bible, New King James Version, 1997, Thomas Nelson, Inc., pg. 984, Earl D. Radmacher, General Editor |
