It is often translated as "soul" or "life," but its usage extends to denote the essence of a person, their inner being, or life force. It can refer to the physical life of a creature, the emotional and spiritual aspects of a person, or the entirety of a living being. In some contexts, "nephesh" is used to describe desires, appetites, and emotions, reflecting the holistic view of human nature in Hebrew thought.Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of "nephesh" was integral to understanding human identity and existence. Unlike the Greek dichotomy of body and soul, the Hebrew perspective viewed humans as unified beings. "Nephesh" encapsulated the totality of a person's life and being, including their physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. This holistic view is evident in the way "nephesh" is used to describe both humans and animals as living beings with breath and vitality.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div>Word Origin from an unused word Definition a soul, living being, life, self, person, desire, passion, appetite, emotion NASB Translation any (1), anyone (2), anyone* (1), appetite (7), being (1), beings (3), body (1), breath (1), corpse (2), creature (6), creatures (3), dead (1), dead person (2), deadly (1), death (1), defenseless* (1), desire (12), desire* (2), discontented* (1), endure* (1), feelings (1), fierce* (2), greedy* (1), heart (5), heart's (2), herself (12), Himself (4), himself (19), human (1), human being (1), hunger (1), life (146), life* (1), lifeblood* (2), lives (34), living creature (1), longing* (1), man (4), man's (1), men* (2), mind (2), Myself (3), myself (2), number (1), ones (1), others (1), ourselves (3), own (1), passion* (1), people (2), people* (1), perfume* (1), person (68), person* (1), persons (19), slave (1), some (1), soul (238), soul's (1), souls (12), strength (1), themselves (6), thirst (1), throat (2), will (1), wish (1), wishes (1), yourself (11), yourselves (13).<div align="center"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> נֶ֫פֶשׁ756 noun feminineGenesis 49:6 (so even <a href="/interlinear/genesis/2-19.htm">Genesis 2:19</a>;
