God breathed into Adam's nostrils the BREATH of LIFE

Genesis 2:7
Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
Strong's Hebrew: 5397. נְשָׁמָה (neshamah) — 23 Occurrences

Brown-Driver-Briggs:
  1. breath of God as hot wind kindling a flame Isaiah 30:33; as destroying wind 2 Samuel 22:16 = Psalm 18:16; Job 4:9; as cold wind producing ice Job 32:8; Job 33:4.
  2. breath of man 1 Kings 17:17; Isaiah 42:5; Job 27:3; Daniel 10:7; breath of life Genesis 2:7 (J); it is God's breath in man Job 34:14; Job 36:4;
  3. every breathing thing Deuteronomy 20:16; Joshua 11:11,14;
  4. spirit of man, Proverbs 20:27 the spirit of man is a lamp
A detached breath of life from God becomes the animating spirit of man.
 
What about you? Did you receive an uncreated breath from God when you were born?
It wasn't the breath of God it was just air. The breath of God was given once into Adam's nostrils and that set every birth in motion in the physical realm to breathe air when they are born.

No.
And of course, God's breath is not a creation.
I even doubt God breathes.
Job 34:

14 If he [Almight God] should set his heart to it and gather to himself his spirit [H7307] and his breath [H5397], 15 all flesh would perish together, and man would return to dust.
This special H7307/H5397/spirit is an uncreated breath of life directly from God and cannot be destroyed.
 
Job 34:

The breath of God is what animated Adam, but God does not breathe His breath in every single person born. He did it once and set humanity in motion.
Besides, God does not have lungs and does not breathe air. He is Self-Existent without air.
Before a child is born, they breathe embryonic fluid. After they are born, they need to be stimulated or 'shocked' into using their lungs and the breath they take in is air.
 
Here we go again.

You implied it in #6.

When I was born as is everyone God does not with each, and every baby born breathe His breath in them. Babies first gasp is a gasp of air.
Can you quote my actual words in quotation marks where I asserted God has lungs and breathed air?
