All four times that soul [nehphesh] is used in Genesis 1; it is referring to animals, not to a person. IN TEN OF THE FIRST THIRTEEN TIMES SOUL [NEHPHESH] IS USED, IT IS USED REFERRING TO ANIMALS, but the KJV hides this by using different words, and most who read the KJV never know it. Nehphesh is translated "soul" only one time of the first thirteen times it is used in the KJV; but it is not translated "soul" in any of the first thirteen times it is used in the NKJV, NASV, NRSV, or NIV...
