Although the expression "Holy Spirit" occurs in Ps. 51:11 and in Isa. 63:10–11, it had not yet acquired quite the same meaning which was attached to it in rabbinical literature: in the latter it is equivalent to the expression "Spirit of the Lord". In Gen.1:2 God's spirit hovered over the form of lifeless matter, thereby making the Creation possible.<sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-je_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-je-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although the <i>ruach ha-kodesh</i> may be named instead of God, it was conceived of as being something distinct; and, like everything earthly that comes from heaven, the <i>ruach ha-kodesh</i> is composed of light and <a href="/wiki/Fire" title="Fire">fire</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-je_36-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-je-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The most characteristic sign of the presence of the <i>ruach ha-kodesh</i> is the gift of prophecy.
