May 11 at 15:55 comment added Mike McCain This related to the soul being killed. Genesis 19:17 King James Version 17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; (nephesh) look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. Genesis 19:17 Jubilee Bible 2000 And it came to pass as they brought them forth outside, that he said, Escape; for thy soul, (nephesh) do not look behind thee, neither stop thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. The angle did not say: “Run for your bodies”

May 4 at 23:41 comment added Dottard @RayButterworth - good point about Num 9:6 - I had not noticed that previously. Many thanks.
May 4 at 23:24 comment added Ray Butterworth Ezekiel 18:4 makes it explicit: "Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.". And Numbers 9:6 says "And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man …", where "dead body" is the same Hebrew word that is translated as "soul" elsewhere.
