This book uses the imago Dei the image of God as an organizing principle for a systematic treatment of Old Testament theology. This concept challenges humanity to resemble or reflect the communicable attributes of God such as love compassion rationality and creativity. Exodus 3468 helps the biblical reader to discern in whose image we have been made. This concept also serves as the basis for Gods invitation covenant redemption community worship and wisdom are keys to understanding the divinehuman relationship. This concept also calls humanity to represent divine concerns by extending his compassion to the socially disadvantaged the physically challenged and the spiritually estranged. The New Testaments portrait of Jesus echoes these concerns He is the image of the invisible God He enables his followers to come near to God and He represents the concerns of Gods kingdom.
