Identity and Idolatry

The book explores the relationship between "idol" and "image" language in the Bible, suggesting that the former is a reversal of the latter as outlined in Genesis 1. It traces the narrative of human identity from creation through fall to redemption in Christ, while also addressing the contemporary resurgence of interest in idolatry. This examination reveals how idolatry can effectively articulate the modern "culture of desire," offering insights into the complexities of human identity and spirituality.
