both the inner נפשׁ and the outer בשׂר are conceived as resting on a common substratum: אַךְ בְּשָׂרוֹ עָלָיו יִכְאָ֑ב וְנַפְשׁוֹ עָלָיו תֶּאֱבָֽל׃ Iyov 14:22 only his flesh upon him is in pain, and his soul upon him mourneth; compare Tehillim 42:5, Tehillim 42:7; Tehillim 131:2; Iyov 30:16; Eicha 3:20 [see עַל 1 d], all poetical (compare 6 c).

often desired that the נפשׁ may be delivered: from Sheʾôl Tehillim 16:10; Tehillim 30:4; Tehillim 49:16; Tehillim 86:13; Tehillim 89:49; Mishlei 23:14; from שַׁחַת, the pit of Sheʾôl, Yeshaya 38:17 Iyov 33:18, Iyov 33:22, Iyov 33:28, Iyov 33:30.

The נפשׁ becomes a living being: by God’s breathing נשׁמת חיים into the nostrils of its בשׂר; of man Breishis 2:7; by implication of animals also Breishis 2:19; so Tehillim 104:29, Tehillim 104:30 compare Tehillim 66:9 man is נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה, a living, breathing being Breishis 2:7; elsewhere נפשׁ חיּה always of animals Breishis 1:20, Breishis 1:24, Breishis 1:30; Breishis 9:12, Breishis 9:15, Breishis 9:16 (all P), Yechezkel 47:9; so נפשׁ החיּה Breishis 1:21; Breishis 9:10 (both P), Vayikra 11:10, Vayikra 11:46; נפשׁ השׁרצת Vayikra 11:46; נפשׁ כל חי Iyov 12:10. נפשׁ is frequently used with the verb חיה: †וחיתה נפשׁ Breishis 12:13; Breishis 19:20 (both J), Melachim Alef 20:32, Tehillim 119:175; Yirmiya 38:17, Yirmiya 38:20; †חֵי נַפְשְׁךָ Shmuel Alef 1:26; Shmuel Alef 17:55; Shmuel Alef 20:3; Shmuel Alef 25:26 Shmuel Beis 11:11; Shmuel Beis 14:19; Melachim Beis 2:2, Melachim Beis 2:4, Melachim Beis 2:6; Melachim Beis 4:30 (all ); compare †יְחַיֶּה נ׳ Melachim Alef 20:31, Yechezkel 18:27 Tehillim 22:30; also Breishis 19:19 Yeshaya 55:3; Mishlei 3:22.

The נפשׁ (without חיה noun or verb) is specif.:

a living being whose life resides in the blood [so in Arabic Wellhausen^{Skizzen iii. 217} G.

נפשׁ = seat of the appetites, in all periods (46 times)—

hunger: נ׳ רְעֵבָה hungry soul Tehillim 107:9; Mishlei 27:7; with noun or verb of שׂבע satisfy Yeshaya 56:11; Yeshaya 58:10; Yirmiya 50:19; Yechezkel 7:19 Tehillim 63:6; Tehillim 107:9; Mishlei 13:25; Mishlei 27:7; מתוק לנ׳ Mishlei 16:24 sweet to the taste.

appetite in general: אֹיְבַי בנ׳ יַקִּיפוּ עָלָיו Tehillim 17:9 my enemies compass me about with greed; הִרְחִיבָה שְׁאוֹל נַפְשָׁהּ וּפָֽעֲרָה פִיהָ Yeshaya 5:14 Sheʾôl enlarged her appetite, etc., compare Chavakuk 2:5; Mishlei 23:2 בַּעַל נֶפֶשׁ; Ec uses נפשׁ only in the sense of a, b, c; the נפשׁ craves, lacks, and is filled with good things: Koheles 2:24; Koheles 4:8; Koheles 6:2, Koheles 6:3, Koheles 6:7, Koheles 6:9; Koheles 7:28.

נ׳ = seat of emotions and passions (151 times)—

desire: †אִוְּתָה נ׳ soul desires Devarim 12:20; Devarim 14:26 Shmuel Alef 2:16 Shmuel Beis 3:21; Melachim Alef 11:37; Iyov 23:13 Mishlei 13:4; Mishlei 21:10; Micha 7:1; תַּאֲוַת נ׳ Tehillim 10:3; Yeshaya 26:8; †אַוַּת נ׳ Devarim 12:15, Devarim 12:20, Devarim 12:21; Devarim 18:6 Shmuel Alef 23:20; Yirmiya 2:24; so also לנפשׁ according to one’s desire Devarim 21:14 Tehillim 78:18; Yirmiya 34:16; כנפשׁ Devarim 23:25; האח נפשׁנו ah, our desire Tehillim 35:25; בנפשׁ at one’s desire Tehillim 105:22; Yechezkel 16:27; נ׳ יָֽצְאָה בְדַבְּרוֹ Shir HaShirim 5:6; †נשׂא נ׳ lift up the soul, desire Devarim 24:15 Shmuel Beis 14:14 (read אליהם, not אלהים), Tehillim 24:4; Tehillim 25:1; Tehillim 86:4; Tehillim 143:8; Mishlei 19:8; Yirmiya 22:27; Yirmiya 44:14; Hoshea 4:8.

abhorrence, loathing: געלה נ׳ soul abhorreth Vayikra 26:11, Vayikra 26:15, Vayikra 26:30, Vayikra 26:43 Yirmiya 14:19; וגם נ׳ בחלה בי Zecharia 11:8 and their soul also fell a loathing against me.

sorrow and distress: †מרי נ׳ bitter, gloomy, discontented of soul Shoftim 18:25 Shmuel Beis 17:8; Iyov 3:20; Mishlei 31:6; †מר נ׳ Shmuel Alef 22:2 compare Iyov 7:11; Iyov 10:1; Yeshaya 38:15; Yechezkel 27:31; עָֽגְמָה נ׳ Iyov 30:25 grieved; אגמי נ׳ sad of soul Yeshaya 19:10; תבכה נ׳ my soul shall weep Yirmiya 13:17; נ׳ ירעה his soul trembleth Yeshaya 15:4; צרת נ׳ distress of soul Breishis 42:21.

joy: נ׳ תגיל my soul rejoiceth Tehillim 35:9; Yeshaya 61:10; שׂמּח נ׳ rejoice the soul Tehillim 86:4; also Tehillim 94:19; Tehillim 138:3; Mishlei 29:17.

love: אהבה נ׳ my soul loveth Shir HaShirim 1:7; Shir HaShirim 3:1, Shir HaShirim 3:2, Shir HaShirim 3:3, Shir HaShirim 3:4; יְדִדוּת נ׳ darling of my soul Yirmiya 12:7; דבקה נ׳ ב׳ his soul clave unto Breishis 34:3, c. אחרי Tehillim 63:9; חשׁקה נ׳ ב׳ soul is attached to Breishis 34:8.

alienation, hatred, revenge: †תֵּקַע נ׳ מן the soul is alienated from Yirmiya 6:8; Yechezkel 23:17, Yechezkel 23:18; נקעה נ׳ מן Yechezkel 23:18, Yechezkel 23:22, Yechezkel 23:28; שְׂנֻאי נ׳ hated of soul Shmuel Beis 5:8 (Keri); שׂנאה נ׳ Tehillim 11:5 Yeshaya 1:14.

other emotions and feelings: השׁיב נ׳ bring back soul Eicha 1:11, Eicha 1:19 (that is revive, compare c. שׁוּב Melachim Alef 17:21), hence figuratively refresh, cheer, v Melachim Alef 17:16 Tehillim 19:8 Mishlei 25:13; Rus 4:15; שׁובב נ׳ Tehillim 23:3; מַחְמַל נ׳ your souls’ compassion Yechezkel 24:21; קצרה נ׳ soul was impatient Bamidbar 21:4, Shoftim 10:16; Shoftim 16:16; Zecharia 11:8; כי אאריך נ׳ that I should prolong my patience Iyov 6:11; ידעתם את־נ׳ הגר ye know the feeling of the stranger Shemos 23:9 (R^D).

נפשׁ is used occasionally for mental acts + לבב (see 10); poss. also alone, owing to unconscious assimilation by late writers; but most, if not all, exx. may be otherwise explained: נפשׁי ידעת מאד Tehillim 139:14 my soul knoweth well (or I know well; compare 4 a); בלא דעת נ׳ לא טוב Mishlei 19:2 that the soul be without knowledge is not good (but Revised Version^m desire without knowledge, compare 6 a); דעה חכמה לנ׳ Mishlei 24:14 know wisdom for thy soul (or according to thy desire, compare 6 a); אל תדמי בנ׳ Esther 4:13 think not in thy soul (or in thyself, compare 4 b); כמו שׁער בג׳ Mishlei 23:7 as he reckoneth in his soul (but Revised Version in himself, compare 4 b); מה תאמר נ׳ Shmuel Alef 20:4 (but Authorized Version Revised Version following Septuagint ἐπιθυμεῖ = תְּאַוֶּה; see 6 a).

נפשׁ for acts of the will is doubtful: אם ישׁ נפשׁכם (את) if it is your purpose Breishis 23:8 Melachim Beis 9:15 (or if it is your desire, 6 a); בחרה נ׳ my soul chooseth Iyov 7:15; מאנה נ׳ my soul refuseth Iyov 6:7 Tehillim 77:3; נ׳ חפצה their soul delighteth in Yeshaya 66:3; נ׳ רצתה my soul delighteth in Yeshaya 42:1; (all perhaps emotional, 6 b, d, g).

נפשׁ = character is still more doubtful: לֹא־יָֽשְׁרָה נ׳ בּוֹ Chavakuk 2:4 his soul is not right in him (but Septuagint οὐκ εὐδοκεῖ ἡ ψυχή μου ἐν αὐτῷ [εὐδοκεῖ = רצתה], see 6); נַפְשִׁי לֹא מְטֻמָּאָה Yechezkel 4:14 my soul hath not (or I have not, 4 a) been polluted.

נ׳ in D, when used with לבב, is assim. to it, and shares with it the meanings of 7, 8, 9; and so in later writers influenced by D (unless we may think that ל׳ is used of intellect, while נ׳ is used of the feelings): thus, בכל לבב ובכל נפשׁ (see לבב): c. דרשׁ Devarim 4:29; Divrei HaYamim Beis 15:12; עשׂה Devarim 26:16; אהב Devarim 6:5; Devarim 13:4; Devarim 30:6; ידע Yehoshua 23:14; עבד Devarim 10:12; Devarim 11:13; Yehoshua 22:5; שׁמע בקלו Devarim 30:2; שׁוב אל Devarim 30:10 Melachim Alef 8:48 = Divrei HaYamim Beis 6:38, Melachim Beis 23:25; שׁמר מצות Melachim Beis 23:3 = Divrei HaYamim Beis 34:31; הלך לפני Melachim Alef 2:4; and Devarim 11:18; Shmuel Alef 2:35 Divrei HaYamim Alef 22:19; Divrei HaYamim Alef 28:9 Yirmiya 32:41 Tehillim 13:3 Mishlei 2:10; Mishlei 24:12.

—In three cases is generally found closer approach to supposed radical meaning breath:—

שׁמן וקטרת ישׂמח לב ומתק רעהו מעצת נפשׁ Mishlei 27:9. Gesenius (after Döderlein) renders מעצת נ׳ more than odorous trees, so later edds., even Buhl; but Vulgate De Siegfried-Stade transp. וּמֶתֶק נ׳ מֵעֲצַת רֵעֵהוּ. Septuagint Hitzig Bi ומתקרעה = the soul is rent asunder by cares. In any case נפשׁ is ‖ לב, compare 10.

נַפְשׁוֹ גֶּחָלִים תְּלַהֵט Iyov 41:13 his breath kindleth coals (of the crocodile). The piece is one of the latest in the book; primitive meaning hardly in such a passage; context favours ref. to passion or fury; perhaps under 6 f, his passion or fury kindleth coals.

בָּתֵּי הַנֶּפֶשׁ Yeshaya 3:20 perfume boxes; meaning evident from context; but not necessarily scent (breath)-boxes; may be 6 a, boxes of desire, or 5, boxes exciting the sense of smell; = smelling boxes or bottles. Noldeke sufficient evid. in Biblical Hebrew, therefore, for meaning breath, odour.—See, for complete study of נֶפֶשׁ (all passages), Br^{JBL 1897, 17 ff.}
