Pojęcie Obrazu Bożego w myśli patrystycznej a nauczanie metropolity Antoniego Blooma
The Concept of the Image of God in the Patristic thought and the Teaching of Metropolitan Anthony Bloom

Summary/Abstract: The concept of the divine image in the patristic thought has a very rich tradition and a well-developed semantics. In an exegetic interpretation one can find both a broad treatment of this concept and a very narrow one, the objective one. In the strict sense of this word, the Divine Image, on the image of whom was created man, is Christ, the Incarnate Logos, who has fulfilled the eternal, divine intent towards man and towards the whole of creation, which was the divinisation and the state when God will be all in all (1 Corinthians 15:28). The metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh presents on this background an original thought which, however, grows from this tradition and which is concentrated around the psychological work of a Christian on his own inside with a view to extracting the lost beauty from its depth.
