Description
Summary:Feminist theologians, trying to integrate their daily life into God language, are easily blamed for violating the prohibition of images. Classical theologians, however, run the risk of violating this very prohibition themselves by not sharply distinguishing between the revelation by word, at the one side, and their own theological imagination, on the other. Kune Biezeveld interferes in this mainly North-American debate by disentangling the possible contrast between projection and revelation from the original issue: the prohibition of material cult images, related as these are to the cults of other gods and goddesses than YHWH. From here, a next step can be made: a laying bare of the backlash against feminist God language as grounded on anachronistic views on the origins of the Israelite religion.
