Commentaire sur Isaïe 57:16
כִּ֣י לֹ֤א לְעוֹלָם֙ אָרִ֔יב וְלֹ֥א לָנֶ֖צַח אֶקְּצ֑וֹף כִּי־ר֙וּחַ֙ מִלְּפָנַ֣י יַֽעֲט֔וֹף וּנְשָׁמ֖וֹת אֲנִ֥י עָשִֽׂיתִי׃
Non; je ne veux pas disputer sans trêve, être toujours en colère, car l’esprit finirait par s’éteindre devant moi, avec ces âmes que moi-même j’ai créées.
Rashi on Isaiah
For I will not contend forever If I bring afflictions upon a person, My contention with him is not for a long time, neither is My anger forever.

Rashi on Isaiah
when a spirit from before Me humbles itself Heb. יַעֲטוֹף. When the spirit of man, which is from before Me, humbles itself, confesses and humbles itself because of its betrayal. Comp. (Lam. 2:19) “humbled (הָעֲטוּפִים) with hunger,” “when the small child and the suckling are humbled (בֵּעָטֵף).” And the souls which I made.
