We tend to think of the Holy Spirit as the straggler of the
Trinity, a latecomer in God's interaction with the world. But our
first introduction to the Holy Spirit is not the drama of Pentecost
in the second chapter of Acts. We first meet the Holy Spirit in the
second verse of the Bible, hovering there, speaking the world into
existence. Christopher Wright begins here and traces the Holy
Spirit through the pages of the Old Testament. We see the Third
Person of the Trinity in the decrees of prophets and psalmists, in
the actions of judges and craftspeople, in the anointing of kings
and the promise of a new creation. Knowable and discernable in the
Old Testament, the Holy Spirit is thus eminently knowable to us.
The witness of the whole of Scripture, from its first pages to its
last, directs us to a Holy Spirit empowering the people of God, and
sustaining and renewing the face of the earth.
