Part 5/10:
Rabbi Jacobson discusses the soul as an entity existing outside of the physical universe—beyond time and space. He humorously compares it to electricity, which predates the refrigerator and continues to exist regardless of whether we perceive it or not. This analogy underscores that the soul resides in a realm inaccessible to physical measurement but fundamental to our existence.
He points out that even in the absence of physical presence, energy persists. The "dead" are not gone; they transition into a different domain, yet their essence endures. This perspective offers comfort and a broader understanding of life and death as parts of an ongoing spiritual journey.
