'Soul' in the Bible

"And do not fear those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

"This is My servant whom I have chosen, My dearly loved One in whom My soul takes pleasure. I will put My spirit upon Him, and He will announce justice to the nations.

"'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God,'" He answered, "'with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole mind.'

and He said to them, "My soul is crushed with anguish to the very point of death; wait here, and keep awake with me."

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole mind, and thy whole strength.'

Then Mary said: "My soul extols the Lord,

and a sword will pierce through your own soul also; that the reasonings in many hearts may be revealed."

"'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God,'" he replied, "'with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole strength, and thy whole mind; and thy fellow man as much as thyself.'"

Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this purpose I have come to this hour.

Among all those who had embraced the faith there was but one heart and soul, so that none of them claimed any of his possessions as his own, but everything they had was common property;

coming upon the soul of every man and woman who deliberately does wrong--upon the Jew first, and then upon the Gentile;

But as for me, as my soul shall answer for it, I appeal to God as my witness, that it was to spare you pain that I gave up my visit to Corinth.

For God's Message is full of life and power, and is keener than the sharpest two-edged sword. It pierces even to the severance of soul from spirit, and penetrates between the joints and the marrow, and it can discern the secret thoughts and purposes of the heart.

That hope we have as an anchor of the soul--an anchor that can neither break nor drag. It passes in behind the veil,

But it is by faith that My righteous servant shall live; and if he shrinks back, My soul takes no pleasure in him."

let him know that he who brings a sinner back from his evil ways will save the man's soul from death and throw a veil over a multitude of sins.

Thirst, like newly-born infants, for pure milk for the soul, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

Dear friends, I entreat you as pilgrims and foreigners not to indulge the cravings of your lower natures: for all such cravings wage war upon the soul.

(For their lawless deeds were torture, day after day, to the pure soul of that righteous man--all that he saw and heard whilst living in their midst.)

My dear friend, I pray that you may in all respects prosper and enjoy good health, just as your soul already prospers.

The dainties that thy soul longed for are gone from thee, and all thine elegance and splendor have perished, and never again shall they be found.
