Since I am in no way an ancient Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek scholar, nor am I an expert in the culture and times of the writings of the Bible, I cannot say what the writers might have meant by the word "spirit", other than guess with my western perspective.

Fair enough. Then how might you know what the writer's meant regarding anything in the Bible?

I'd say the same thing I've been saying about getting to the root meaning of the word "spirit". Study the culture, the manners and the language of the time.

How would you?
