Beyond intellect is the influence of a factor that causes birth. He is giving the essence – the infinity of his nefesh. This births a child, who stand on his own...
This phenomenon exists not only in humans, but in other creatures too.... so do animals have the idea of giving infinity?
Creatures have the ability to procreate and thus the species is eternal. What is represented by this eternality of species? This is not in the power of the creature itself. The same is true of angels – the angel is eternal, but this power is not invested in it.
The father supports his wife and children due to a sense of truth. Truth as opposed to...? Truth as opposed to love. The father perceives the truth of the child, which is endless.
We can abuse and misuse the aspect of truth in relationships, but there is a certain moment of reality that touches the human being – and this is the hashpah, influence of truth. This is a koach eloki (a G-dly faculty) that is part of the man's neshamah, and he is the one who imparts it.
