'Image' in the Bible
So, then, as to the question of taking food offered to images, we are certain that an image is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
Still, all men have not that knowledge: but some, being used till now to the image, are conscious that they are taking food which has been offered to the image; and because they are not strong in the faith, their minds are troubled.
For if a man sees you, who have knowledge, taking food as a guest in the house of an image, will it not give him, if he is feeble, the idea that he may take food offered to images?
Do I say, then, that what is offered to images is anything, or that the image is anything?
For it is not right for a man to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
And in the same way as we have taken on us the image of the man from the earth, so we will take on us the image of the one from heaven.
