Richard 's comments fly in the face of the Greek. The Lord never wished to refer to the wind in this utterance merely to the Spirit of God. Spirit and Wind are denoted by different words in the Greek either Pneuma or Anemos respectively as we are informed in the Notes. Further, the old English word "listeth " does not mean to move, but to wish. Thus, the Spirit moves wherever It wishes.
