Struggling through von Rad's Old Testament Theology today.
Here's a thought I was surprised to find - I thought it originated with Packer:
...it cannot be said that Israel regarded God anthropomorphically, but the reverse, that she considered man as theomorphic.
And this made me smile:
...it is hardly possible to conceive of the idea of a created chaos, for what is created is not chaotic.
Why then, is it so easy to create chaos?
