SPIRIT (Gr. pneuma) Literally,
"breath"; that which is living but immaterial. Spirit is used in three ways in Scripture. (1) The Holy Spirit is one of the three Persons of the Trinity
(John 4:24; 20:22). (2) The angels are called spirits
(Ps. 104:4). (3) The human spirit possesses the intuitive ability to know and experience God
(Rom. 8:16; 1 Cor. 2:10 12).
