>In 1833 the book, "The Doctrine of the Greek
Article applied to the Criticism and Illustration
of the New Testament" by T.F. Middleton was
published. The book is old, but still it is
useful. On p. 276 Middleton wrote: "there being
but one Holy Spirit, he could not be spoken of
indefinitely." Therefore, Middleton concluded (p.
126) that when the reference was to the
influences and operations of the Holy Spirit,
PNEUMA hAGION was "always anarthrous." [snip]
List members may not be aware that the book to which Rolf refers us
is available online:

Rolf mentions a quote from page 276, but the words cited are actually
from the other page reference Rolf gives, viz, p. 126. I'm not sure of
the relevance of page 276 to the discussion, and Rolf might be kind
enough to point out whatever obvious thing I'm overlooking. The online
edition is dated to the year Rolf mentions, 1833.
