For he. Ps 103:14-16 Ge 6:3 Joh 3:6

a wind.Or, as the Hebrew {rooäch holaich welo yashoov} may be rendered, "the spirit goeth away and returneth not again." To this purpose the Arabic, "He remembered that they were flesh; and a spirit which when it departs, returneth not again." The human being is composed of flesh and spirit, or body and soul: these are easily separated, and when separated, the body turns to dust, and the spirit returns no more to animate the body in a state of probation. Job 7:7 Job 7:16 Jas 4:14
