Identity and Idolatry: The Image of God and Its Inversion

(Book #36 in the New Studies in Biblical Theology Series)

by Richard Lints

No Customer Reviews

In this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume, Richard Lints argues that "idol" language in the Bible is a conceptual inversion of the "image" language of Genesis 1. He shows how the narrative of human identity runs from creation to fall to redemption in Christ, and examines the recent renaissance of interest in idolatry with its conceptual power to explain the "culture of desire."
