Could be... Psalms 139 is another.
VERY interesting question!... I hadn't considered it before.

Our sole is what defines our character... mind/will/emotion.
Our spirit is the vessel of the sole in the spiritual realm.
Our flesh is the vessel of the sole in the physical realm.
Since our spirit is eternal and our corrupted body mortal, the sole would naturally be limited to the only vessel left in existence once we die.... Thus... "It is appointed to man once to die, and then comes the judgement"

Our flesh is what is formed at conception... I believe our spirit is formed then too... But our sole?... This must be what God meant when He said He knew us before we were formed in the womb.

That is what I understand Jeremiah is told. If it applies to Jeremiah then it applies to the rest of us.

The soul has a history and depending upon what one did in that history determines much about what role/life choices are made in this flesh life. Also explains what Paul says that some were elected or justified or "having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.

Eph 1:11 In Whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him Who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will;


Ecclesiastes 1:11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.

soul . . . essence, identity, eternal personality.

sole . . . bottom portion of feet, shoes,

sole . . . a type of fish.
