Definition: "Antheil" was a Hebrew term used in ancient Israel for an unclean spirit or soul. It refers to something that cannot be completely cleansed by human effort, often likening it to a "worm," which can remain within one's body without being removed by external means. The term is used metaphorically in the Bible and has its roots in Hebrews 5:12-13 where it describes those who have unclean spirits or souls as "worn out" (referring to their bodies), likened to a worm that cannot be completely washed away, yet they "remain with them." This imagery suggests the spirit is persistent and can persist for long periods without being cleansed.
