Topical Encyclopedia

The concept of the "soul" is a fundamental aspect of biblical anthropology and theology, representing the immaterial essence of a human being. In the Scriptures, the soul is often associated with life, personality, and the inner self, distinct from the physical body yet intricately connected to it.

Old Testament Understanding

In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word most commonly translated as "soul" isnephesh. This term appears in various contexts, often denoting life or the living being. For instance,Genesis 2:7 states, "Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being" . Here,nephesh is used to describe the life principle imparted by God, indicating that the soul is the life force within a person.

The soul is also portrayed as the seat of emotions and desires. In passages likePsalm 42:1-2, the psalmist expresses a deep longing for God: "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul longs after You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, the living God" . This illustrates the soul's capacity for spiritual yearning and connection with the divine.

New Testament Perspective

In the New Testament, the Greek wordpsyche is used to convey the concept of the soul. The New Testament expands on the Old Testament understanding by emphasizing the soul's eternal nature and its significance in salvation. Jesus teaches about the value of the soul inMatthew 16:26: "What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?" . This underscores the soul's immeasurable worth compared to worldly possessions.

The soul is also central to the Great Commandment, where Jesus instructs believers to love God with all their heart, soul, and mind (Matthew 22:37). This command highlights the soul's role in devotion and worship, reflecting the totality of one's being in relationship with God.

The Soul and Salvation

The New Testament further elaborates on the soul's role in salvation and eternal life. In1 Peter 1:9, believers are encouraged by the promise of "the salvation of your souls" , indicating that the soul is the recipient of God's redemptive work through Christ. The soul's eternal destiny is a central theme, with the assurance of eternal life for those who believe in Jesus Christ.

The Soul in Christian Theology

Throughout Christian history, theologians have explored the nature of the soul, often affirming its immortality and its distinction from the body. The soul is seen as the true self, created by God and destined for eternal communion with Him. The doctrine of the soul's immortality is rooted in the belief that humans are made in the image of God (Genesis 1:27), possessing an eternal aspect that transcends physical death.

Practical Implications

The biblical understanding of the soul has profound implications for Christian living. It calls believers to prioritize spiritual growth and to seek a deeper relationship with God. The soul's eternal value encourages a life of holiness and devotion, recognizing that earthly pursuits are temporary compared to the soul's everlasting significance.

In summary, the soul in the Bible is a complex and multifaceted concept, encompassing life, personality, and the spiritual essence of a person. It is central to understanding human nature, salvation, and the believer's relationship with God.
ATS Bible Dictionary
Soul
The ancients supposed the soul, or rather the animating principle of life, to reside in the breath, that it departed from the body with the breath. Hence the Hebrew and Greek words which, when they refer to man, in our Bibles are translated "soul," are usually rendered "life" or "breath" when they refer to animals,Genesis 2:7 7:15Numbers 16:22 Job 12:10 34:14,15Psalm 104:29 Ecclesiastes 12:7 Acts 17:25.
But together with this principle of life, which is common to men and brutes, and which in brutes perishes with the body, there is in man a spiritual, reasonable, and immortal soul, the seat of our thoughts, affections, and reasonings, which distinguishes us from the brute creation, and in which chiefly consists our resemblance to God,Genesis 1:26. This must be spiritual, because it thinks; it must be immortal, because it is spiritual. Scripture ascribes to man alone understanding, conscience, the knowledge of God, wisdom, immortality, and the hope of future everlasting happiness. It threatens men only with punishment in another life, and with the pains of hell. In some places the Bible seems to distinguish soul from spirit,1 Thessalonians 5:23 Hebrews 4:12: the organ of our sensations, appetites, and passions, allied to the body, form the nobler portion of our nature which most allies man to God. Yet we are to conceive of them as one indivisible and spiritual being, called also the mind and the heart, spoken of variously as living, feeling, understanding, reasoning, willing, etc. Its usual designation is the soul.
The immortality of the soul is a fundamental doctrine of revealed religion. The ancient patriarchs lived and died persuaded of this truth; and it was in the hope of another life that they received the promises. CompareGenesis 50:22 Numbers 23:10 1 Samuel 28:13-15 2 Samuel 12:23 Job 19:25,26Ecclesiastes 12:7 Hebrews 11:13-16. In the gospel "life and immortality," and the worth of immortal souls, are fully brought to light,Matthew 16:26 1 1 Corinthians 15:45-57 2 Timothy 1:10. To save the souls of men, Christ freely devoted himself to death; and how does it become us to labor and toil and strive, in our respective spheres, to promote the great work for which He bled and died!

SOUL
sol (nephesh; psuche; Latin anima):

1. Shades of Meaning in the Old Testament:

(1) Soul, like spirit, has various shades of meaning in the Old Testament, which may be summarized as follows: "Soul," "living being," "life," "self," "person," "desire," "appetite," "emotion" and "passion" (BDB under the word). In the first instance it meant that which breathes, and as such is distinguished from basar, "flesh" (Isaiah 10:18 Deuteronomy 12:23); from she'er, "the inner flesh," next the bones (Proverbs 11:17, "his own flesh"); from beTen, "belly" (Psalm 31:10, "My soul and my belly are consumed with grief"), etc.

(2) As the life-breath, it departs at death (Genesis 35:18 Jeremiah 15:2). Hence, the desire among Old Testament saints to be delivered from Sheol (Psalm 16:10, "Thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol") and from shachath, "the pit" (Job 33:18, "He keepeth back his soul from the pit";Isaiah 38:17, "Thou hast.... delivered it (my soul) from the pit of corruption").

(3) By an easy transition the word comes to stand for the individual, personal life, the person, with two distinct shades of meaning which might best be indicated by the Latin anima and animus. As anima, "soul," the life inherent in the body, the animating principle in the blood is denoted (compareDeuteronomy 12:23, 24, `Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the soul; and thou shalt not eat the soul with the flesh'). As animus, "mind," the center of our mental activities and passivities is indicated. Thus we read of `a hungry soul' (Psalm 107:9), `a weary soul' (Jeremiah 31:25), `a loathing soul' (Leviticus 26:11), `a thirsty soul' (Psalm 42:2), `a grieved soul' (Job 30:25), `a loving soul' (Songs 1:7), and many kindred expressions. Cremer has characterized this use of the word in a sentence: "Nephesh (soul) in man is the subject of personal life, whereof pneuma or ruach (spirit) is the principle" (Lexicon, under the word, 795).

(4) This individuality of man, however, may be denoted by pneuma as well, but with a distinction. Nephesh or "soul" can only denote the individual life with a material organization or body. Pneuma or "spirit" is not so restricted. Scripture speaks of "spirits of just men made perfect" (Hebrews 12:23), where there can be no thought of a material or physical or corporeal organization. They are "spiritual beings freed from the assaults and defilements of the flesh" (Delitzsch, in the place cited.). For an exceptional use of psuche in the same sense seeRevelation 6:9;Revelation 20:4, and (irrespective of the meaning ofPsalm 16:10)Acts 2:27.

2. New Testament Distinctions:

(1) In the New Testament psuche appears under more or less similar conditions as in the Old Testament. The contrast here is as carefully maintained as there. It is used where pneuma would be out of place; and yet it seems at times to be employed where pneuma might have been substituted. Thus inJohn 19:30 we read: "Jesus gave up his pneuma" to the Father, and, in the same Gospel (John 10:15), Jesus gave up His "psuche for the sheep," and inMatthew 20:28 He gave His psuche (not His pneuma) as a ransom-a difference which is characteristic. For the pneuma stands in quite a different relation to God from the psuche. The "spirit" (pneuma) is the outbreathing of God into the creature, the life-principle derived from God. The "sour" (psuche) is man's individual possession, that which distinguishes one man from another and from inanimate nature. The pneuma of Christ was surrendered to the Father in death; His psuche was surrendered, His individual life was given "a ransom for many." His life "was given for the sheep"

(2) This explains those expressions in the New Testament which bear on the salvation of the soul and its preservation in the regions of the dead. "Thou wilt not leave my soul unto Hades" (the world of shades) (Acts 2:27); "Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil" (Romans 2:9); "We are.... of them that have faith unto the saving of the soul" (Hebrews 10:39); "Receive..... the implanted word, which is able to save your souls" (James 1:21).

The same or similar expressions may be met with in the Old Testament in reference to the soul. Thus inPsalm 49:8, the King James Version "The redemption of their soul is precious" and again: "God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol" (Psalm 49:15). Perhaps this may explain-at least this is Wendt's explanation-why even a corpse is called nephesh or soul in the Old Testament, because, in the region of the dead, the individuality is retained and, in a measure, separated from God (compareHaggai 2:13 Leviticus 21:11).

3. Oehler on Soul and Spirit:

The distinction between psuche and pneuma, or nephesh and ruach, to which reference has been made, may best be described in the words of Oehler (Old Testament Theology, I, 217): "Man is not spirit, but has it: he is soul..... In the soul, which sprang from the spirit, and exists continually through it, lies the individuality-in the case of man, his personality, his self, his ego." He draws attention to the words of Elihu in Job (33:4): `God's spirit made me,' the soul called into being; `and the breath of the Almighty animates me,' the soul kept in energy and strength, in continued existence, by the Almighty, into whose hands the inbreathed spirit is surrendered, when the soul departs or is taken from us (1 Kings 19:4). Hence, according to Oehler the phrases naphshi ("my soul"), naphshekha ("thy soul") may be rendered in Latin egomet, tu ipse; but not ruchi ("my spirit"), ruchakha ("thy spirit")-soul standing for the whole person, as inGenesis 12:5;Genesis 17:14 Ezekiel 18:4, etc.
