Hi,
"We come across a dual concept of man in the Bible. His element of transcendence was well-known to the Biblical Jew. Yet transcendence was always seen against the background of naturalness. The canvas was man's immanence; transcendence was just projected on it as a display of colors. It was more a modifying than a basic attribute of man."
(Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik, The Emergence of Ethical Man, pg. 9)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
