“God’s breath (Spirit) is like a 'rushing torrent’” - Isaiah 30:28

A wadi (gully) near the Dead Sea with a torrent of water flooding and overflowing it.

Prophets in the Hebrew Scriptures called the YHWH’s Spirit ‘God’s tempest’ (see the prophet Isaiah in Isaiah 30:28).

YHWH’s Spirit is like an ‘overflowing stream’ [/ wadi], as pictured above,. The flooded wadi is a metaphor for the outpouring of the YHWH’s Spirit ‘on all flesh’ - Joel 2:28-29.
