Document Summary

Lecture 8: images of god in the bible. God will come out in the court or have a role in what the judges say to the people. Son of god is not actually the son of god but a representation. 7:14- son- clear that it is not the son of god but a son, it is making it explicitly that the god is saying it is his son and not gods son. Father and son is a metaphor in this verse. Psalm 2:4-7 god is talking to a unique person you are my son, i fathered you this day : father and son with a leader. Exodus 4:22- sons of god does not mean that all the israelites are the son of god but a metaphor that they are because the pharaoh believes he is the son of god. Son of god is used as a metaphor in the bible.
