Spirit of God
'The spirit of God,' as in Genesis 1:2, signifies the divine mercy of the Lord.
'The spirit of God' denotes good from an interior level, so from the divine. The spirit of God is what proceeds from the divine, so from good itself, because the divine is good itself, and what proceeds from it is truth within which is good. This is what 'the spirit of God' signifies in the Word, because the spirit itself does not proceed, but the truth itself within which is good, the spirit being the instrument which produces it.

Arcana Coelestia #434
434. Verse 25 And the man (homo) knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and she called his name Seth - for God has appointed me another seed in place of Abel, seeing that Cain had killed him.
'The man' and 'his wife' are here used to mean the new Church which earlier on was meant by 'Adah and Zillah'. 'Her son whose name she called Seth' means new faith, through which charity may be received 'God has appointed another seed in place of Abel, seeing that Cain had killed him' means that charity, which Cain separated and annihilated, was now conferred on this Church by the Lord.
