Do Orthodox Jews today recognize the Holy Spirit as a person of the Godhead?
No, Orthodox Jews today do not like to recognize the Holy Spirit as a person of the Godhead. However, Scripture does recognize the Holy Spirit as a person of the Godhead. The Spirit has always been, moving upon the face of the deep at creation, and David prayed, 'take not your spirit from me.'
Les explains that Orthodox Jews today do not like to recognize the Holy Spirit as a person of the Godhead, but Scripture does. He notes that the Spirit has always been evident, going back to creation when the Spirit moved upon the face of the deep. David also prayed, 'take not your spirit from me.' So even though Orthodox Jews resist recognizing the Holy Spirit as a person of the Godhead, the Bible clearly presents Him as such.
