Isaiah 40:13

13 Who comprehends ^{▼▼tn Perhaps the verb is used metonymically here in the sense of “advises” (note the following line).} the mind ^{▼▼tn In this context רוּחַ (ruakh) likely refers to the Lord’s “mind,” or mental faculties, rather than his personal Spirit (see BDB 925 s.v. 6).} of the Lord,
or gives him instruction as his counselor? ^{▼▼tn Heb “or [as] the man of his counsel causes him to know?”}
