בְּזַֽעֲקֵךְ֙ יַצִּילֻ֣ךְ קִבּוּצַ֔יִךְ וְאֶת־כֻּלָּ֥ם יִשָּׂא־ר֖וּחַ יִקַּח־הָ֑בֶל וְהַחוֹסֶ֥ה בִי֙ יִנְחַל־אֶ֔רֶץ וְיִירַ֖שׁ הַר־קָדְשִֽׁי׃
Ketika engkau berseru minta tolong, biarlah kumpulan berhala yang kaukumpulkan itu menyelamatkan engkau! Namun semuanya akan diterbangkan angin dan dibawa lenyap oleh sehembus napas; sedangkan orang yang berlindung kepada-Ku akan mewarisi negeri dan memiliki gunung-Ku yang kudus.
Rabbeinu Bahya
When we say in our Amidah prayer on New Year’s Day and on Yom Kippur זכרנו לחיים, “remember us for life,” as well as “inscribe us for life,” the reference is to the life here on earth concerning where we acquire the entitlement to a life of the soul of which David had said אתהלך לפני ה' בארצות החיים. David meant that he wanted to prove his worth by his conduct on terrestrial earth so as to qualify for the ארץ החיים, the land of “the Life” i.e. the celestial regions. [The author bases this on the plural of ארצות החיים, instead of ארץ החיים. Ed.] This is the life which all of Israel is invited to partake in as our sages said in Sanhedrin 90: “all of the people of Israel are entitled to a basic share in the world to come, seeing that Isaiah 60,21 prophesied: ‘and Your people who are all righteous shall inherit eternal life, i.e. ארץ.’” The same prophet said in Isaiah 57,13: “but those who trust in Me shall inherit the land and possess My sacred mount.”
