What is the meaning of "Zamemah Sadeh"?

1.

Rashi (31, according to the Mashal): The Torah muzzles Esav - "Ish Sadeh" (Bereishis 25:27). "Va'Tikachehu" - it takes him from the world, to make him perish.

2.

Malbim (Derech ha'Muskal): She seeds Divine seeds on the field of the Nefesh. The Nefesh has potential to make sprout Pri of grain, if it is worked properly - plowing and seeding in investigation and deed. The seed of the deeds is compared to a field that produces grain for food of the Nefesh in the world [to come] of payment. The seed of investigation is compared to a vineyard. Investigation is embodied in the Nefesh itself. Therefore, ideas are compared to planting in his Nefesh, like vines in a vineyard. They themselves stand forever; they do not wither like straw of grain does. So ideas stand forever in the Nefesh, and in the world of payment it will give wine guarded in its grapes.
