--------------------------------------
The first instance of the word soul:
Gen.2 [7] And Lord Yehovah formed man of the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Gen.12 [5] And Abram took Sarai
his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had
gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went
forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
A soul can be cut off from His people; if you break Yehovah’s covenant.
Gen.35 [18] And
it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she
called his name Ben-oni:
but his father called him Benjamin.
Gen.34 [3] And his
soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.
[8] And Hamor
communed with them, saying, The
soul of my son Shechem
longeth for your daughter: I
pray you give her him to wife.
------------------------
There can be anguish of soul
souls can be numbered:
all the souls
of his sons and his daughters were thirty and three
sixteen souls
souls were
fourteen
all the souls
were seven
all the souls
were threescore and six
two souls
And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were
seventy souls:
souls can be cut off from Israel
Exod.30 [12] When thou takest
the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give
every man a ransom for his soul unto Yehovah, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among
them, when thou numberest
them.
[15] The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give
less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto Yehovah, to make an atonement for your souls.[16] And thou shalt take the atonement
money of the children of Israel, and shalt
appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may
be a memorial unto the children of Israel before Yehovah, to make an atonement for your souls.
Exod.31 [14] Ye
shall keep the sabbath
therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for
whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among
his people.
Lev.5 - [1] And if a soul sin,
and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath seen or known
of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
[2] Or if a soul touch any
unclean thing, whether it be a carcase
of an unclean beast, or a carcase
of unclean cattle, or the carcase
of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be
unclean, and guilty.
[3] Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness it be
that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall
be guilty.
[4] Or if a soul swear,
pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever it be that a
man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall
be guilty in one of these.
[5] And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things,
that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that thing:
[6] And he shall bring his trespass offering unto Yehovah for his sin which he hath sinned, a
female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and
the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
[7] And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his
trespass, which he hath committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto Yehovah; one for a sin
offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
[8] And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer that which
is for the sin offering first, and wring off his head from his neck, but shall
not divide it asunder:
[9] And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering upon the side
of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the
altar: it is a sin offering.
[10] And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to
the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement
for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
[11] But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young
pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a
sin offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any
frankincense thereon: for it is a sin offering.
[12] Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his
handful of it, even a memorial thereof, and burn it on the altar, according to
the offerings made by fire unto Yehovah:
it is a sin offering.
[13] And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin
that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the
remnant shall be the priest's, as a meat offering.
[14] And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
[15] If a soul commit a trespass,
and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of Yehovah; then he shall bring for his trespass
unto Yehovah a ram without blemish
out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel
of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:
[16] And he shall make amends for the harm that he hath done in the holy
thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it unto the priest: and
the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass
offering, and it shall be forgiven him.
[17] And if a soul sin, and
commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments
of Yehovah; though he wist it not, yet is he
guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.
[18] And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy
estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make
an atonement for him
concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and it shall be forgiven him.
[19] It is a trespass offering: he hath certainly trespassed against Yehovah.
Lev.16 [29] And this shall be
a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the
month, ye shall afflict your souls, and
do no work at all, whether it
be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
[30] For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to
cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before Yehovah.
[31] It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall
afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
Lev.17 [10] And whatsoever man there be of the
house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood;
I will even set my face against that soul
that eateth blood, and will cut
him off from among his people.[11] For the life of the flesh is in the
blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your
souls: for it is the blood that maketh
an atonement for the soul.[12] Therefore I said unto the children
of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger
that sojourneth among you eat
blood.
[15] And every soul that
eateth that which died of
itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own
country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in
water, and be unclean until the even:
then shall he be clean.
Lev.20 [6] And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and
after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that
soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
[25] Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and
unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or
by any manner of living thing that creepeth
on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
Ezek.18 [4] Behold, all souls are
mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine:
the soul that sinneth, it shall die
[20] The soul that sinneth,
it shall die.
The son shall not bear the iniquity
of the father,
neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the
righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
[21]
But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep
all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live,
he shall not die.
[22] All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be
mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
[23] Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith
the Lord YEHOVAH: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
[24] But when the righteous turneth away from
his righteousness, and committeth iniquity,
and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he
live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his
trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them
shall he die.
[25] Yet ye say, The way of Yehovah
is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal?
are
not your ways unequal?
[26] When a righteous man turneth away from
his righteousness, and committeth iniquity,
and dieth
in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.
[27] Again, when the wicked man turneth away from
his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and
right, he shall save his soul alive.
[28] Because he considereth, and turneth
away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live,
he shall not die.
[29] Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of
the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are
not your ways unequal?
[30]
Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways,
saith
the Lord YEHOVAH. Repent, and turn
yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
[31] Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have
transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die,
O house of Israel?
[32] For I have no pleasure in the death of him
that dieth,
saith
the Lord YEHOVAH: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

thy Yehovah

all the strength, and to love his neighbour as
himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

heart. [13]
Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things
are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Heb.10 [38] Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man

the saving of the soul.

with Messiah a thousand years.
