What is the Soul? The Hebrew term for “soul” is nephesh, found over 780 times in the Old Testament. Because the context may vary, it’s not always translated as “soul.” Nephesh, therefore, signifies different things, depending upon the passage in which it is found. Likewise, in the New Testament, the original Greek word for “soul” is psuche, found 103 times. Our modern word “psychology” comes from this word. Let’s look at a few ways “soul” is used in the Scriptures. “Soul” can refer to an individual person. The prophet Ezekiel declared the “soul” (i.e., the person) that sinneth, it shall die” (Ezekiel 18:20), or, as Peter would write hundreds of years later: “in the days of Noah…eight souls were saved by water” (1 Peter 3:20). “Soul” can also refer to that aspect of man which is characterized by the intellectual and emotional parts of him (Gen. 27:25; Job 30:16). Most importantly, however, the body has been endowed by the God of Heaven with a “soul” (John 12:27). Specifically, man’s soul is the spiritual component of man that is fashioned in the very image of God (Gen. 1:26), and that can exist apart from the physical body. Jesus made reference to the soul in Mt. 10:28, where He warns, “…fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both body and soul in hell.” We see from this verse that a definite distinction is made between the soul and body. Who can kill the body? Mankind can do that. The daily news usually features at least one victim who has died at the hands of another human being. However, man cannot kill the soul, for the soul is not physical, but spiritual, able to exist without the body. Rachel’s soul did not die with her body; rather, it departed from her body when she died. Gen. 35:18, “And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin.” In 1 Kings 17:21-22, the soul of a widow’s son returned when he was brought back to life; the obvious indication being that when the soul departs, the body dies, while the soul’s existence continues. To bring life back to the child, Elijah “…stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child’s soul come into him again. (22) And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.” Again, we must conclude the soul leaves the body at death and continues. In Luke 12:20, the rich fool was told, “…this night thy soul shall be required of thee then whose shall those things be, which thou has provided?” The clear implication being that when his soul was taken, his body would cease to exist. Hence the question, “…then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?” The important things to understand are these: 1) Your soul will live forever. 2) It will either spend eternity in Heaven or Hell: there is no “purgatory” or “in-between” state (Heb. 9:27; Luke 16:19-31). The Bible only speaks of two destinations: Heaven or Hell, so we ask, “Where will your soul spend eternity?” R.W. McAlister, Anna Church of Christ in Anna, IL
