immortality of the soul

immortality of the soul

The continuation of the soul's life after death; life in the world to come.

("And it may be said that Job did not despise the second part, for he believed in the salvation of the soul as much as he believed in what would come" - Rallab"3 Job Chapter 3, and so: "Even 'empty commandments to come' - and if there is hope for 'the salvation of the soul' and for 'eternal life', this too will not be my delight, if it is within the tongue and the path of the tongue" - Bialik/ on "The Wisdom of Israel", and so on: "What do you have, Shem!... The house of Shammai and the house of Hillel? The ruins of the paths? A heap of wheat? The return of the wise? A contrast to the rest of the soul after the body returns to dust?" - H. Hazaz/ Dorot Harashonim, 109, and so on: "And now the iniquity of one who kills his own soul is greater than the iniquity of one who kills another.. Ah! "He who proclaims his disbelief in the existence of the soul and the lordship of creation will be blessed" - Life in the Light/ Feathers, 224)
