and the breath of all the human race.

34:15 all flesh would perish together

Isaiah 42:5

42:5 This is what the true God, the Lord, says –

the one who created the sky and stretched it out,

the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it,

the one who gives breath to the people on it,

and life to those who live on it:

Acts 17:25

17:25 nor is he served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives life and breath and everything to everyone.

Acts 17:28-29

17:28 For in him we live and move about and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we too are his offspring.’ 17:29 So since we are God’s offspring, we should not think the deity is like gold or silver or stone, an image made by human skill and imagination.
