The Shekhinah, as understood by Judaism, is directly merged into the related Jewish concept of the Ruach HaKodesh to create a common theology which becomes in Christianity the presence or indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the believer, drawing parallels to the presence of God in Solomon's Temple.[citation needed] As a result of the merged Christian understanding, "Shekhinah" is occasionally used as a secondary Hebrew name for the concept of the Holy Spirit, but not often in mainstream denominations.
