Mt 12.28
EI DE EN PNEUMATI QEOU EGW EKBALLW TA DAIMONIA, ARA EFQASEN EF' hUMAS hH BASILEIA TOU QEOU
If one maintains that the Spirit here must be distinct from God, how then would he understand 1 Cor 2.11
TIS GAR OIDEN ANQRWPWN TA TOU ANQRWPOU EI MN TO PNEUMA TOU ANQRWPOU TO EN AUTWi
Indeed, how would one understand something such as Acts 28.3
SUSTREYANTOS DE TOU PAULOU FRUGANWN TI PLHQOS KAI EPIQENTOS EPI THN PURAN, EXIDNA APO THS QERMHSECELQOUSA KAQHYEN THS XEIROS AUTOU
Is the hand something separate from the person?

Subject: [B-Greek] PNEUMATI THEOU: Meaning of Genitive
To the list members:
I am currently involved in a discussion with someone
who has made an assertion about the genetive case. He
says that PNEUMATI THEOU, as for example in Matthew
12:28 and other passages, indicates grammatically a
distinction between Spirit and God as opposed to both
referring to the same person. Is this something that
can be deduced from the grammar? Could a genetive be
taken this way at all times? If not, why?
Sincerely,
Laurence Schell
