"Image and Likeness: Anthropology in Patristic Exegesis of Genesis" by Michael Young delves into the theological and philosophical explorations of the image of God as presented in Genesis, examining how early Christian thinkers, known as the Church Fathers, interpreted this foundational biblical concept. The book analyzes the ways in which figures such as Irenaeus, Augustine, Athanasius, and Origen understood the divine image in humanity, highlighting their differing views on the soul, human nature, and the implications of the Fall. Drawing from primary texts and historical context, Young explores the complex relationship between the human being, the divine, and creation, addressing key themes such as the nature of the soul, the impact of sin, and the eventual restoration of the divine image through Christ. The work offers a profound insight into the evolution of early Christian anthropology, emphasizing the interplay between Scripture, tradition, and philosophical thought in shaping the theological understanding of humanity's role in the divine plan. Through this scholarly investigation, the book not only sheds light on the patristic contributions to Christian anthropology but also engages with contemporary theological debates, offering timeless reflections on the nature and destiny of the human person.
