The three functions of the soul realm are:
emotions, intellect and will.
The Bible doesn't use the word emotion,
but it speaks of joy, peace, love, hatred, anger,
etc; which are emotions.
The Bible doesn't use the word intellect,
but uses the words, mind, think and thought;
which are used in the intellect.
The Bible doesn't use the word will,
which is the decision maker.

The Greek text specifically says "the spirit and the soul and the body" distinguishing between the three.
The Hebrew text doesn't distinguish between spirit and soul as clearly as the Greek; that is why many scholars interpret the spirit and the soul as one.
But it's inconsistent with Hebrews 4:12, which clearly states that the "quick and powerful" Word of God can divide the soul and spirit.
Since they can be divided [even though only by the Word of God], spirit and soul must have distinguishable characteristics.

John used the title, Son of God, about twice as often compared to Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
Because Jesus taught that out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks, it indicates that John had a greater understanding or revelation of Jesus Christ as the Son of God than Matthew, the tax collector,
Mark, John Mark, Peter's first convert, or
Luke, the physician.

Not only did Jesus come out of the grave by the power of God, but He was raised up with a new and glorified body.
This new, glorified body was evidenced by His appearing to the disciple when they had the doors and windows closed.
They felt His nail scars and the wound in His side.
Mary recognized his voice.
At Emmaus He disappear instantly from their sight.
He physically ascended to the Father in front of the disciples.
The people He and the disciples raised from the dead were raised with their mortal bodies and died again later.
