Holy Ghost
Divine third person
Holy Ghost is an older English term for the Holy Spirit—the third person of the Christian Trinity, along with the Father and the Son.
The phrase appears throughout the King James Bible and traditional Christian liturgy: baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Modern translations and denominations generally prefer Holy Spirit, though Holy Ghost persists in some traditional contexts and older hymns.
