Rashi, on Isa 38:11

Rashi · 1040–1105
Isa 38:11 · Douay-Rheims
“I said: I shall not see the Lord God in the land of the living. I shall behold man no more, nor the inhabitant of rest.”
On this verse:
“[Addendum: I will not see the Eternal (יָהּ) I will no longer use the name יָהּ. in the land of the living The living use it, but the dead are not permitted, as it is said (Ps. 115:17): “The dead shall not praise the Eternal (יָהּ).” It is a rule for the dead that they may never mention the Name consisting of two letters.] in the land of the living in the Temple. I will no longer look upon man (I.e., I will) no longer (look upon) a living (man). with those who dwell in withdrawal (חָדֶל) For I will be with the dead, who dwell in a land withdrawn and withheld from the living.”
