A Preliminary Study on The Biblical Meaning of “Soul”. In the Old Testament the word for soul is “nephesh” and in the New the word is “psuche” — with both terms having the same meaning. “Whoever touches the dead body of anyone and fails to purify himself defiles the LORD's tabernacle. That person must be cut off from Israel” (Numbers 19:13). The bold words in the above verse is the Hebrew word “nephesh”, commonly translated as “soul” in numerous places in the OT Scriptures. Is it valid to question WHY the translators didn’t use the word “soul” in these two places in this verse? We judge that it is very valid to ask that question, for that is the only way we can find out the WHY. We will address that in this article as a part of our study.

Yep. Live search (or google, if you must) 'Persian flaw'
That doesn't make much sense
Apparently it does to Satan worshipers.
(Damn. A rug is too far from cloth to make a good Satin worshipers pun...)

I think at this point we ought to explore the facetious answers. I submit:
I had the filet of soul...

Maybe that's the problem with some of our bishops ...

That was at LEAST a double-entendre. (What’s French f or “triple”?)

Good point. The references to Catholics (fish Fridays) and the ΙΧΘΥΣ 'Jesus fish' even I missed.
