THE USAGE OF RUACH, SPIRIT. This Is Appendix 9 From The Companion Bible.    The word ruach occurs 389 times in the Hebrew Old Testament.    In the Authorized Version it is rendered spirit in 237 passages (and no other word is rendered spirit except n eshamah, "breath", in Job 26:4 and Proverbs 20:27. See Appendix 16). In the remaining 152 places it is translated in 22 different ways, which are to be carefully distinguished.    [In the Revised Version ruach is rendered spirit 224 times, and in the remaining 165 passages is rendered in many different ways.]    The meaning of the word is to be deduced only from its usage. The one root idea running through all the passages is invisible force. As this force may be exerted in varying form, and may be manifested in divers ways, so various renderings are necessitated, corresponding thereto.    Ruach, in whatever sense it is used, always represents that which is invisible except by its manifestations. These are seen both externally to man, as well as internally within man.    As coming from God, it is the invisible origin of life. All apart from this is death. It comes from God, and returns to God (Ecclesiastes 3:19,20). Hence, ruach is used of    I. - GOD, as being invisible. "The Spirit of Jehovah" is Jehovah Himself, in His manifestation of invisible power.    2 Samuel 23:2. Psalm 139:7 (= Thee).
