Pemikiran Yahudi Mazmur 74:5: Nefesh HaChayim

יִ֭וָּדַע כְּמֵבִ֣יא לְמָ֑עְלָה בִּֽסֲבָךְ־עֵ֝֗ץ קַרְדֻּמּֽוֹת׃

Ia dikenal seperti orang yang mengayunkan kapak ke atas, ke tengah belukar pepohonan.

Nefesh HaChayim

As King David, peace be upon him, prayed in Psalm ע''ד: {The simple understanding: When Israel had finally been given permission to build the בית המיקדש, for which they needed to chop trees, they regarded (יודע) this task as if they were bringing a gift of axes in the thicket of trees (בסבך עץ קרדומות) to (למעלה) on high.} Rather, the נפש החיים explains that David prayed that [Nebuchadnezzar and Titus] should be regarded as if they had actually destroyed the upper [מרומים] realm, although truthfully, their actions did not touch/reach (לא נגעו) there [to the מקדש של מעלה] in any way, as we explained above.
