imago dei in Genesis: Speaking in the Image of God

Graeme Auld

New College, University of Edinburgh

Reading the end of Genesis 1 as part of a fresh prologue to a book which had begun with Genesis 5:1, gives fresh perspective to our view of Genesis 1:26-31. Compared with its source texts (Gen 5:1–3 and 9:1–7), the end of Genesis 1 places humans further from animals and closer to the divine. This correlates well with the role of speech in Genesis 1–3 as shared by human and divine.
