Anyone of the Jewish faith?

[Grumpystiltskin]

I'm trying to write an essay and am comparing different faiths and their response to the sale of eggs and sperm. I'm Catholic so that's easy! There is plenty on Islam but I can't find anthing about Judaism.

Is procreation enshrined in your marriage vows or teaching? I have found some bits on contraception but nothing on assisted reproduction. I would be massively grateful for some references.

I don't know anything about the sale of eggs and sperm.

But I do know that Israel has the highest proportion of IVF births in the world. Everyone is entitled to two IVF pregnancies on the state. The clinics run like a production facility! Secular Jews, Orthodox Jews, Israeli Arabs, all in the waiting room together.

If you google to look for one of the clinics, you may get a link to the religious view.

Outstanding, thank you.
