The 3rd entity is the spirit (pneuma), where some are sufficiently/obligedly 'opinionated' to capitalize the first letter. The word 'pneuma' is a noun, nominative, neuter, singular. Whether it is a proper noun, or just a regular noun is therefore a matter of opinion. The word can also mean 'breath', as in breath of God, or Jesus, or 'active force' of same, it cannot therefore be 'definitively' personal and there we have the 'facts' of the matter. The A. can therefore be exegetic. | |

| Jul 1, 2021 at 2:21 | comment | added | Dottard | As usual, I am at a loss to know why some downvote such a valid question!! I presume that some have such mental conniption about anything that even mentions the trinity that their automatic response is a downvote. | |

I wouldn't want questions like this asked for every similar verse. Ultimately we each have to decide for ourselves what we think the weight of biblical evidence shows. | |
