If you read the articles I posted, especially the one by Abu Bilal Mustafa Al-Kanadi, you will notice that the wqord ruh has several different connotations in the Qur'an. In the ayat you cited, it refers to Angel jibreel but in ceveral other ayaat and ahadith it refers to the human soul. Consider the following ayat, where Allah swt informs the Angels:
15:29 "When I have fashioned him [Adam] (in due proportion) and breathed into him a Ruh from Me, fall ye down in obediance unto him."
Asallama Alaikum oh,Jazak'Allah for the clearification I was going crazy for a minute there.

This clearly does not mean that Allah swt breathed Angel Jibreel into Adam, rather it refers to the human soul created by Allah swt, and delivered into the body of Adam pbuh.
It'll be cool though
