Bible Question: What is the difference between (lower case) spirit in the bible and (capital) Spirit? ex. Exodus 31:3 (spirit of God) Psalm 51:11 (holy spirit) Isaiah 63:10 (holy Spirit) Matthew 1:18 (Holy Spirit) Those are just a few examples of scriptures. I know there is a signifigance for these differant types of capitalizations. Please give as much information as possible. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Mike, Which Bible version are you using? In the NASB, 'Spirit' is capitalized in Exodus 31:3, Psalm 51:11, Isaiah 63:10 and Matthew 1:18. Some Bible versions are not very consistent when it comes to capitalization, and others, like the NASB, NKJV and Amplified Bible, consistently capitalize pronouns that refer to deity. First of all, we need to know which Bible version you are using before we can accurately answer the issues involved in capitalization. Blessings to you, Makarios |
