NASB | Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. |
Subject: Is man a 'triune' creature? |
Bible Note: Dear Charis: I do respect what you wrote to inhzsvc. Honestly, I think the closest one could come to making a factual disctinction between soul and spirit would be: To look up the original Greek and Hebrew word(s) translated "soul", and the one(s) translated "spirit". Then read what each original language word means, how it is used, and the different English words used to translate the orginal Heb or Gr word throughout the same Bible version. This might shed some light on the subject. Yours, JVH0212 (not dummy, just a little forgetful :-) ) |
