What is "Tzafanta"?

1.

Ibn Ezra: You hid and covered.

2.

Malbim: You created man in a way that his heart cannot understand how the Nefesh can persist after it separates from the body. Man's intellect does not understand the non-physical, which cannot be sensed.

2)

What will not be elevated?

1.

Rashi: They will not raise His glory.

2.

Ibn Ezra: You will not elevate them.

3.

Malbim: No one knows clearly that the Nefesh is eternal, therefore the Ru'ach is not elevated in their eyes. Many think that it is a physical power that ceases when the body dies.
