It would appear that the notion of body and soul as two separate entities is more of a philosophical concept than a Christian one even though Jesus said "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell." (Matthew ch 10). Even here Scripture makes it clear that the body and soul are not separated in hell. It should also be noted that throughout Scripture we are treated as just one entity especially when Jesus spoke about the resurrection.
AnswerThe belief that we have an 'immortal soul' is NOT from the Original Bible. At Genesis 2:7, The Bible says-- 'And Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul'. The Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary says, "often the soul is equated with the total person." For instance, Genesis 2:7 states: "Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul." The first man Adam was a soul. The Bible shows that even animals 'are' souls: Genesis 1:20,21--'And God went on to say: "Let the waters swarm forth a swarm of living souls and let flying creatures fly over the earth upon the face of the expanse of the heavens." And God proceeded to create the great sea monsters and every living soul that moves about, which the waters swarmed forth according to their kinds, and every winged flying creature according to its kind. Finally, a soul is not immortal; it can die, is seen at Ezekiel 18:4--"Look! All the souls-to me they belong. As the soul of the father so likewise the soul of the son-to me they belong. The soul that is sinning-it itself will die".Therefore, the breath of life, given at conception, causes the person or an animal to become a living soul. Look up these scriptures in your Bible.well in my opinion the bible does say there is a living soul within man..the flesh is very easy to destroy....so i don't see how long it can last in a lake of fire...when the sun alone be blasting the skin off our bodies.....but in my opinion after the body is destroyed the living soul is going to be still in torment.....both body and soul be destroyed in hell..Jesus gives us 2 characteristics for one person when he says """And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell." (Matthew ch 10) when Jesus says both soul and body is why.... i see it as a living soul inside of a human body......again...... ''There istherefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.'' Romans 8...now we again see we can chose to walk after our flesh or our spirit...2chacarteristics again..cause they are both one contesting with each other...when we spiritualy grow we realise that our living soul and our bodies are not the same..but the body be the shell of the soul..that's why everyone has this saying ""something told me not to do this"" because we follow the desire of the flesh but the living soul within has a different desire...on another hand some people believe Adam and eve were at first only living souls before they ate the fruit....and that they had no human body as we now see it...for they were to live forever....but after they eat the fruit they became human as we now know it with coruptable bodies..that's why they only realize they were naked after they ate the fruit and the children only came after they sinned and had that body(this concept makes sense but i have to research it more before i run with it)
''For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality''1st corin 15vs53... Adam sinned and gave us a coruptable body over our soul......and christ died conquering the flesh and rise giving us a path to the immortal body.....''For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.''1st corin15vs22..people are going to have many veiws on this but research for yourself every answer...they are many more passages in the bible that shows us a contrast between spirit and flesh......''Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; 7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. 8 Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.'' Romans 8vs5'' we see another separation between flesh and spirit..and they be many more.....a mans true self is his spirit the flesh is mostly a shell that has its own desires......

When does the soul enter the body?
The belief about when the soul enters the body varies among different cultures and religions. Some believe it enters at conception, while others think it happens at birth or even later in life. There isn't a definitive answer, as it largely depends on individual beliefs and interpretations.
Where in the Bible does it say when the soul enters a newborn?
Catholic theologians and philosophers have always taught that the soul is infused with the body at the moment of its creation. This was done independently of Biblical studies, which do not directly address the question. Over the centuries, however, when exactly this creation of a new human life transpired was largely speculation based on the primitive medical knowledge known about human gestation. With modern science which has shown that at conception a new life form is derived, the Church holds that life begins at conception and that the soul and the body are then simultaneously created and united.

When did the words 'immortal' and 'soul' first appear together in the Bible?
I do not believe you will find the actual phrase 'immortal soul' in the Bible. In fact, some sects say the soul is not immortal and there is no life between physical death and 'the resurrection of the body' on judgment day.Another answer:The phrase "immortal soul" does not appear in the Bible. However, between the promise of eternal life for the faithful believer (John 3:16) and the question asked by Jesus in Matthew 16:26 (For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?), the Bible clearly teaches that the soul of man IS immortal, and that its ultimate disposition is solely in the hands of God.Ecclesiastes 12:7 - Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to God who gave it.Matthew 10:28 - And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.[Quotes from NKJV]
Does the bible say fear no man but god?
"And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather, fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." Matthew 10:28, NKJV. "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What can man do to me?" Hebrews 13:6b, NKJV.
Are YOU the soul or body?
Answer: You are a soul within a physical body. Answer: You are an immortal soul temporarily residing within a mortal body. Answer: You are a soul, one with the body, providing the form of the body, both inseparable, in the Aristotelian sense.

What can you get for your soul?
Definition: In the Bible, "soul" is translated from the Hebrew ne´phesh and the Greek psy·khe´. Bible usage shows the soul to be a person or an animal or the life that a person or an animal enjoys. To many persons, however, "soul" means the immaterial or spirit part of a human being that survives the death of the physical body. Others understand it to be the principle of life. But these latter views are not Bible teachings.What does the Bible saythat helps us to understandwhat the soul is? Gen. 2:7: "Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul." (Notice that this does not say that man wasgiven a soul but that he became a soul, a living person.) So hat you are really asking is "What can a person get for their life?"
Is the departed soul still seeing their love ones?
The Bible say's that each person that dies, their soul is asleep (their souls are like waiting in a waiting room) I'm just telling what I think the Bible says. No. the departed soul does not see their love ones.
Is the soul eternal?
In theory, yes. Religion of any kind would say that it is, (since a soul is most commonly referred to as the "driver of your body" or the "processor of your body", your body is (in essence) the vessel for your "eternal" soul). That's my best answer.
Doesn't the bible say God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living a soul?
Yes
