| Σύνοψη: | The biblical metaphor imago dei (image of God) has been understood in different ways down through the centuries. In Laudato Si', Pope Francis maintains that the anthropocentrism that flows from many those understandings that grant autonomous and unlimited control over the rest of the natural world, are 'tyrannical, distorted, excessive, or misguided.' In line with this position, this article seeks to show that imago dei, as found in the first Genesis creation account, should be understood within ancient Israel's tradition of monarchy. This tradition maintains that monarchic rule includes deputed and circumscribed responsibility for the world along with accountability to God for that responsibility. The human couple are 'image' of God, not divine in their own right. |
