וְהָרְשָׁעִ֖ים כַּיָּ֣ם נִגְרָ֑שׁ כִּ֤י הַשְׁקֵט֙ לֹ֣א יוּכָ֔ל וַיִּגְרְשׁ֥וּ מֵימָ֖יו רֶ֥פֶשׁ וָטִֽיט׃
Mais les pervers sont comme une mer houleuse, qui ne peut s’apaiser et dont les eaux bouillonnent de limon et de fange.
Akeidat Yitzchak
Our daily prayers reflect the fact that without the maturing process described, the nefesh is hardly special. "The advantage of man over beast is vanity," because "what are we and what does our whole life amount to?" All this is so because the additional nefesh man has in its original form does not yet qualify for life after death. Israel, as a nation, has acquired the automatic right to life after death. "Hail to you Israel, who is like you, a nation saved by the Lord?" (Deut 33,29, see commentary in chapter 44).
