Part 13/15:
Rabbi Jacobson asserts that our true essence is our soul, which manifests through our body. While the body is a temporary vehicle, the soul is eternal. Our identity extends beyond physical appearances and body language, rooted in the unseen but more significant spiritual dimension.
He reflects on the biblical depiction of humans as created in divine likeness, which grants us a high responsibility and a profound purpose. Understanding that we are spiritual beings imbues life with sacred significance and underscores the importance of connecting with our higher selves.
