“Upon him will rest the Spirit of Yahweh: the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and fear of Yahweh. He will be inspired by fear of Yahweh. He will not judge by appearances or make decisions based on hearsay, but he will administer justice to the poor and uphold the rights of the land’s afflicted. His words will strike down the oppressor; the breath of his lips will slay the wicked.”Isaiah 11:1ss

For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace…”Romans 8:4ss
