“In Hebrew teaching, Ruach is the part of the flame closest to the wick. Nephesh is the part of the wick closest to the flame.”
J. Earp

Ruach – It is received via knowledge, teachings and revelations.

Nephesh – It’s the animalistic part of the soul.

Neshamah – Godly part of the soul

As a layman, I am not able to understand J.Earp’s quote on how Wick & Flame are related to Ruach & Nephesh.

I Request Hebrew Scholars among the readers -to throw some light on this comparison.

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏
