Musar sur Les Psaumes 77:9
הֶאָפֵ֣ס לָנֶ֣צַח חַסְדּ֑וֹ גָּ֥מַר אֹ֝֗מֶר לְדֹ֣ר וָדֹֽר׃
Sa bonté a-t-elle disparu à jamais? Sa promesse est-elle annulée pour la suite des temps?
Shenei Luchot HaBerit
He writes subsequently that their sin consisted of the word אפס, that though they had spoken truthfully, and had reported on what they had been asked to report, that word means "zero," in the sense that the chances of accomplishing one's objective were "zero," non existent.
