quotation...

"Yet he perceived with despondancy that, taken all around, he was a
man of too many passions to make a good clergyman; the utmost he could
hope for was that in a life of constant internal warfare between flesh
and spirit the former might not always be victorious" - Jude thinking
to himself, from "Jude the Obscure"

according to a Talaminian interpretation, the dichotomy between flesh and spirit present in Paul's writings is not the same as the body/soul dichotomy.
