RE: What does the Bible say about the dead? - Part 2

in #christianity6 years ago

Great blog once again!
I like the equation of the soul :)
Breath of life + body.
Another example could be Genesis 14:21:
21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
That word persons is actually nephesh which is soul.

Sort:  

Thanks, I think part 3 should cover the rest of what I wanted to say about the state of the dead. We can thank the Catholic church for confusing the matter. They are a mish-mosh of Pagan + Christianity. And as they mixed the two together they confused everything.

Genesis 14:21 is a great one. Lots of other examples in the Bible :-)
