In God's Image: Myth, Theology, and Law in Classical Judaism
Lorberbaum, Yair (Bar-Ilan University, Israel)
Yair Lorberbaum reconstructs the idea of the creation of man in the image of God (tselem Elohim) attributed in the Midrash and the Talmud. He analyzes meanings attributed to tselem Elohim in early rabbinic thought, as expressed in Aggadah, and explores its application in the normative, legal, and ritual realms.
