So sexual intercourse was meant by God to be the right of married people only and to be used by them for two purposes only: to procreate new life, if nature so co-operates--that is sexual intercourse's procreative purpose, and to build up the love and unity of the spouses--sexual intercourse's unitive purpose. For example, David Daube and David Biale emphasize that the text celebrates and blesses the fleshliness of sexual intercourse and the procreative possibilities inherent in it. The affective dimension of marriage is in evidence here as little as is the sexual dimension, and for the same reason: everything hangs on the procreative act between male and female. |
