I guess the point I was trying to make is obscure. In the common, modern usage, "image" is a representation of something. A photograph is an "image" of a person. But I am totally unlike my photograph, except is one very superficial way. My photo is flat, inert, unchanging, and noncommunicative. On the other hand, I am alive, moving, communicating, thinking, passing through time, learning, experiencing, growing, and way better looking than my photo. In fact, my photo seems to add a couple dozen pounds to me...maybe.
Of course, that is the modern concept of "image", but I doubt it's been really changed in its history. Perhaps we're as completely different from God as my picture is different from me, but with subtle similarities.
