Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -It stems from the primary text in Genesis 1:27, which reads: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female he created them.” The exact meaning of the phrase has been debated for millennia.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Exod 4:22-23, God calls Israel his firstborn son (Exod 4:22-23). This means that as a nation, Israel is supposed to be the image of God, since sonship implies image; to be in the image of God means to be his children.
