Recent discussions about the precise meaning of nefesh ended with the
decision that the term basically means body, dead or alive. However, gufah
and
g'viah are also translated as body. Can someone define the difference or the
different contexts, if any, which determine the use of either of these three
terms? Thx.
Doris
