But a broken spirit dries the bones.” Proverbs 17:22

How about “hold his breath,’ but not touch his breath– a brother at Cherry Street had this idea–

That would be it. Good thinking!

I am usually not real good at riddles but was able to get this one after reading the passage several times. That was a good one and a good idea to foster Bible study. Keep them coming.

But couldn’t someone say that when they breathe out, they can touch their breath?

Brother, you were digging through the old ones this morning, huh? :)
I guess the answer revolves around God putting Adam’s breath into him; so that would mean that Adam could’ve held it, but not touched it…since it was on the inside and all. I get what you’re saying but with the script reference it keeps the answer narrowed down a bit.
