AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 2:10 For God has unveiled them and revealed them to us through the [Holy] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things [diligently], even [sounding and measuring] the [profound] depths of God [the divine counsels and things far beyond human understanding]. |

Bible Note: Hi terrib, The first clause of 1 Cor 2:10 speaks of the things revealed, and the second talks of the things searched. So I would not say that they should both be necessarily capitalized. I again reference #146900 and the discussion there. The thoughts of God are known by the Spirit of God; He does not have to search for them. However, our spirit searches all things; for our spirit wants to know the things that are freely given to us by God. When we know those things, having been taught by the Holy Spirit, we have wisdom from God. We have received the spirit and words of the hidden wisdom which God predestined. That is why I would interpret verse 12 with a lower case "spirit" also. 1 Cor 2:12, "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the *spirit which is from God, that we might know the things freely given to us by God."
