The Soul You Have Given Me…

     Someone asked “What is the difference between a Jew’s soul and a
gentile’s soul?”

     All living beings have an “Animal Soul”. This is what activates the
animal. The animal does not have true freewill but acts and reacts only
according to its nature.

     A gentile has an animal soul, and he or she also has an “Intelligent
Soul.” The animal soul animates…activates the body and the intelligent soul
gives the human freewill to decide what he or she wants to do. If the
gentile chooses to follow the Seven Commandments of Noah he or she will
become a righteous person, a pious person among the nations. They will have
a wonderful life in this world and a share in the World to Come.

     The Jew has an animal soul and an intelligent soul. The Jew has also
been given an additional soul in order to accomplish the Jew’s unique
mission in the world. This soul is called the “G-dly Soul”.

     The animal soul and intellectual souls of the gentile and of the Jew
are the same. The animal drives the animal, and the intellect has the
ability to direct the animal either to live an entirely animal life, or if
it chooses, it can lead the person to pursue righteous goals.

     The G-dly soul the Jew has been given is what provides the Jew with
his or her unique opportunity in this world. If the Jew’s intellectual soul
directs the animal soul the Jew will become a servant of Hashem and a Light
unto the Nations, and will receive a fitting reward in the World to Come.

     Mankind either lives out his or her years in a fierce animal jungle,
or in the Garden of Eden. It all depends on whether their animal soul rules
over their intellectual soul, or if their intellectual soul rules over
their animal soul. It is the individual’s own freewill that decides.
