Pneuma



(Greek πνεῦμα) Literally "breath" or "wind." In the Bible is usually translated as "spirit." Related to the Hebrew: ruach.

"Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Pneuma." - Mat 1:18

"I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Pneuma, and with fire..." - Mat 3:11

"Then was Jesus led up of the Pneuma into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil." - Mat 4:1

"Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Pneuma shall not be forgiven unto men." - Mat 12:31

"Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the pneuma, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the pneuma is pneuma. The pneuma bloweth where it listeth. ... So is every one that is born of the pneuma." - Jesus in John 3
