I recently read that Catholicism "borrowed" the belief in angels - intangible essence which is God's helpers - from Judaism. Interestingly, the angels or entities related to them are present in almost all religions, which I think is further evidence that really all believe the same thing - only with minor differences, the triviality of human stupidity sometimes grows to the level of (pseudo) a valid reason for a religious war. But this is not what I wanted to really write.
interested me that in the Talmud can read about the Angel of Conception named Laila, who accompanies the child from the very beginning of its existence. The angel is holding nine months of the child lamp, which communicates the light of all the knowledge on Torah . Teaches child about what it was, about what is and what it will be. Your child learns about who he is, what are the expectations for him and we have missions to fulfill - in short everything that is necessary for it to his future life on earth. The unborn child in the womb has the ability to see the universe in its full extent - from east to west and from north to south, and understanding it in every aspect, from the smallest physical particles, even the most complex mechanisms governing these particles. Unfortunately, at birth, when the child begins to see light of day, Laila extinguishes a lamp over his head and puts his finger to his lips, making it at the same time the child forgets everything he was taught. And apparently that's where everyone has a recess in the upper lip - the delicate memory of an angel touch. Forgetting everything that is said an angel baby in the womb is necessary to ensure that it can live a normal life. And although after the birth of Torah learning is no longer so easy, Jews believe that the special effort that man puts in this study is due to just the desire to fill this particular void in the memory.
