ברכות יח,,א

The Binah Leitim interprets Tehilim (118.,17) לא אמות כי אחיה, I should not die but live as, when I live, I should not be dead. Sometimes we forget the reason for living and act like we are dead.

A person lives on when his children follow his ways. Yaakov Avinu because he left children behind who followed he ways did not die. It says in Tehilim (115,17) לא המתים יהללו י-ה ולא כל ירדי דומה The dead cannot praisHashem nor those who descend into silence. It is followed by ואנחנו נברך י-ה but we prase Hashem, why
I think that through our praise of Hashem, the dead continue to praise Him.
