Hoekema discusses the implications of the assertion that humankind was created in the image of God, devoting several chapters to the biblical teaching on God's image, the teaching of philosophers and theologians through the ages, and his own theological analysis. Suitable for seminary-level anthropology courses, yet accesible to educated laypeople.
Anthony A. Hoekema (1913-1988) was professor of systematic theology at Calvin Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan. His other widely read works include The Christian Looks at Himself and The Four Major Cults.
Interpretation "In this enlightening and scholarly work, Hoekema reappraises anthropology in the light of Scripture and Christian tradition. His contention is that the image of God in humanity is not lost through sin but instead is perverted. . . This book can be recommended as an important and timely contribution to theological anthropology. It is both historically informative and biblically based."
