I did a little research, hoping wind, "ἄνεμος," might be translated as spirit, but it is not. What I did learn is that Jesus doesn't user ἄνεμος all that much, since it refers to a strong violent wind, and when Jesus uses a wind metaphor for spirit, he used πνεῦμα.

"1) a motion produced by winds, storms, waves, etc 1a) to agitate or shake 1b) to cause to totter 1c) to shake thoroughly, of a measure filled by shaking its contents together 2) to shake down, overthrow 2a) to cast down from one's (secure and happy) state 2b) to move, agitate the mind, to disturb one"
The last definition seems particuarly interesting to me: to agitate the mind, if there is something else meant by κάλαμος than reed or staff.
Does anybody have a good grasp on what is being said in this passage? [[User:JacobB|JacobB]] 19:35, 20 December 2009 (EST)
