By way of example, this is how I have always understood it, from II Cor 4:16 - "Though our outward man perish yet the inward man is renewed day by day."
Paul is making a distinction of body and spirit, but not a separation.
And, BTW, this example is not the same as the Nestorian view in which they term "son" dealing with the humanity and ignoring the deity.
You cannot separate the two, especially after reading Isaiah 9:6.

What I am saying to clarify, is Jesus had a HUMAN spirit of his own. His human spirit was (not) divine. These guys think the "dual nature" concept that is taught is... Jesus had a Divine spirit of his own, which in turn shows 2 divine spirits.(Jesus' and the Fathers')
