Bible Verse Review

the spirit of God: that is, the breath which God gave him, Genesis 2:7, Isaiah 2:22, Acts 17:25

Reciprocal: Job 12:10 - the breath Job 20:9 - The eye Psalms 146:4 - His breath Isaiah 42:5 - he that giveth Malachi 2:15 - the spirit

Gill's Notes on the Bible

All the while my breath [is] in me,.... So long the oath of God would be upon him, or he bound himself under it:

and the spirit of God [is] in my nostrils; which signifies the same thing. The breath of a man is his spirit, and this is of God, the Father of spirits; he first breathed into man the breath of life, and he became a living soul or spirit, Genesis 2:7; it is he that gives life and breath to every man, Acts 17:25, and continues it as long as he pleases, which is a very precarious thing; for it is in his nostrils, where it is drawn to and fro and soon and easily stopped; nor will it always continue, it will some time not be, it will go forth, and then man dies, and returns to the earth, Ecclesiastes 12:7; but as long as there is breath there is life; so that to say this is the same as to say, as long as I live, or have a being, Psalms 104:33; and while that continued, Job looked upon himself under the oath he had taken by the living God.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And the spirit of God is in my nostrils - As long as I live. The “spirit of God” here means the breath that God breathed into man when he created him, Genesis 2:7. It would seem probable that there was an allusion to that fact by the language here, and that the knowledge of the way in which man was created was thus handed down by tradition.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 27:3. All the while my breath is in me — As Job appears to allude to the creation of Adam, whom God made out of the dust of the earth, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, so that he became a living soul, the whole of Job's assertion may be no more than a periphrasis for As long as I live and have my understanding. Indeed נשמתי nishmathi may be rendered my mind or understanding, and רוח אלוה ruach Eloah, the breath of God, the principle of animal life, the same that he breathed into Adam; for it is there said, Genesis 2:7, He breathed into his nostrils, נשמת חיים nismath chaiyim, the breath of lives, or that principle from which animal and spiritual life proceeds; in consequence of which he became לנפש חיה lenephesh chaiyah, an intelligent or rational animal.
