Ruach is as physical as a gust of wind and as deep as the breath of life. It hovers over the waters at creation, fills craftsmen and prophets, and is the very breath God breathes into humanity.

The same word names the Spirit of God who empowers and renews. Ezekiel’s valley of dry bones lives again when the ruach enters them — a vivid picture of the life only God’s Spirit gives.
