it has nothing at all to do with teaching. It is calling the work of the Holy Spirit the work of satan. That involves actual activity i.e. miracles or healing.Basically if a person were to say "That person is of an ungodly spirit" and be falsely accusing someone who was teaching rightly through the Spirit: that would be blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. "Blasphemy" means to "injure the name/fame/reputation" and to call a person working and teaching by the Holy Spirit "anti-Christ" or "evil" or "not a Christian" or such would be blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. I suppose the lesson is, better be really careful about who you accuse. If you can't recognize the Holy Spirit, then you can't recognize God, and so can't be forgiven if you don't recognize the Spirit of truth.
I'd also quickly note that "unforgivable" is based on a terrible translation of "aion" and the passages basically say "does not have forgiveness in the age, or, the age to come" but says nothing about the ages afterward; or, even "eternity" itself. I believe it can, and will, be forgiven.
