The Spirit of Jesus (Acts 16:7)

Greek for the Week

It’s important for us to remember that, though we can’t see him, Jesus continues to direct and guide our lives. He takes an active and personal role in leading us into the next step of his will for us. We find this in Acts 16:7. Here to pneuma iesou is functioning as a familiar genitive. It means means “the Spirit which comes from Jesus.” Luke called the Holy Spirit this because he wanted to point out that Jesus was right there in the story, alongside his apostles, just as he had been in the Gospels.
