The Image of God: Gender Models in Judaeo - Christian Tradition
These ten essays by distinguished scholars consider the gendering of the 'image of God' from the book of Genesis to the Protestant Reformation and beyond. How, the essays ask,was the notion of the 'image of God' construed in religious and theological discussions in the formative eras of Christian history? If humans of both sexes are 'God-like' why has the church, much of Christian theology, and the wider social order been so reluctant to grant women equality and to use female as well as male metaphors for God?
