- Title
"Holding Sway in Companionship": Genesis 1:26 Revisited.
- Authors
Pentiuc, Eugen
- Abstract
The article presents some biblical materials that support the view of God's creation and human responsibility toward it by traditional Orthodox Church, focusing on Genesis 1:26 and emphasizing on idea of ruling in companionship and its lexical and interpretive role in Scripture and Semitic matrix. The author notes that although in Genesis 1:26, divine mandate to humanity to have dominion over the rest of creation may seem to refer to despotic rule, there is a need understand vocabulary choices.
