50. 4. Where “spirit” is used in speaking of the Lord, it means his divine life and therefore the Lord himself.

The one whom the Father sent speaks the words of God; without limit God has given him the spirit. The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. (John 3:34-35)

A shoot will go forth from the trunk of Jesse; the spirit of Jehovah will rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and intelligence, the spirit of counsel and strength. (Isaiah 11:1-2)

I have put my spirit upon him; he will bring forth judgment to the nations. (Isaiah 42:1)

He will come [to us] as a narrow river; in him the spirit of Jehovah will bring [us] a sign. Then he will come to Zion as the Redeemer. (Isaiah 59:19-20)

The spirit of the Lord Jehovih is upon me; Jehovah has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. (Isaiah 61:1; Luke 4:18)

Jesus perceived in his spirit that they were having these thoughts within themselves. (Mark 2:8)

Jesus rejoiced in his spirit and said... (Luke 10:21)

Jesus was troubled in his spirit. (John 13:21)

Jesus sighed deeply in his spirit. (Mark 8:12)

[2] “Spirit” [stands] for Jehovah himself or the Lord.

God is a spirit. (John 4:24)

Who directed the spirit of Jehovah, or who was the man of his counsel? (Isaiah 40:13)

The spirit of Jehovah led them by means of the hand of Moses. (Isaiah 63:11-12, 14)

Where shall I go from your spirit, and where shall I flee? (Psalms 139:7)

Jehovah said, “[Zerubbabel] will accomplish this not by might but by my spirit.” (Zechariah 4:6)

They angered the spirit of his holiness; therefore he turned into an enemy for them. (Psalms 106:33)

My spirit will not contend with humankind forever, because humankind is flesh. (Genesis 6:3)

I will not dispute forever, because the spirit would fail in my presence. (Isaiah 57:16)

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, but someone who says a word against the Son of Humanity will be forgiven. (Matthew 12:31-32; Mark 3:28-30; Luke 12:10)

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is blasphemy against the Lord’s divine nature. Blasphemy against the Son of Humanity is something contrary to the Word, understanding its meaning differently. The Son of Humanity is the Lord as the Word, as already explained.
