And the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding.
1The work of God enlightening man is expressed by breathing; when Jesus Christ gave his Disciples the Spirit, he breathed upon them, (or inspired them) and said, receive ye the holy Ghost (John 20.22.) For, as in the first Creation, when God gave man a natural being, he breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul (Gen. 2.7.) so in the second or new Creation God breaths a spiritual life into that life, and man becomes a quickened soul; And as his own soul is quickened by the holy Spirit of grace, so he is fitted, as an instrument in the hand of God, to quicken the souls of others with grace, or to instruct them in the ways of grace.
