Mali, Franz 2021 The Opus imperfectum in Matthaeum is the most detailed and longest commentary on the Gospel of Matthew composed by an unknown Arian author at the beginning of the 5th century. He compares the notion of image with the portrait of the emperor on the coins, which is venerated similarly to the emperor himself. As the image of the coin can be wiped off also the image of God in human can be rubbed off through vices if humans adopt the image of the worldly king instead of the image of God. Therefore, only a good human can represent the image of God in imitating him in his good deeds. If humans do well God will take care of them. The ‘image of God’ is part of the ‘nature’ of human so that he is able to distinguish good from evil as God can. Only a son resembles his father, not the slave his master, but we should consider all our neighbours ‘images of God’ too, because of their nature. application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/324421 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/324421/files/mali2021imagodeiprooriente251-.pdf ger info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Imago Dei.
