       Iconoclasts:    idolatry,      iconophiles:  focus,    venera3on,     Bernard  of  Clairvaux:   distrac3ng,  expensive,   Abbot  Suger:  expensive   images  honored  God,       Examples:  
  16. Eleousa   Vladimir  Virgin,   Constan3nople,  12th   Century  

    “Virgin  of   tenderness.”   Or   Glykophilsousa   “Virgin  of  Sweet   Kisses”  
  17. Iconoclasts  (Breakers  of  Images):   1)  Icons  are  akin  to

     the  “graven  images”  men3oned   in  the  second  commandment:  “4  Thou  shalt  not   make  unto  thee  any  graven  image,  or  any  likeness   of  any  thing  that  is  in  heaven  above,  or  that  is  in   the  earth  beneath,  or  that  is  in  the  water  under   the  earth:5    thou  shalt  not  bow  down  thyself  to   them,  nor  serve  them.”  (Exodus  20:  4-­‐5)   2)  Icons  are  man  made,  as  opposed  to  relic,  and  do   not  deserve  to  be  venerated:  “The  divine  nature  is   completely  uncircumscribable  and  cannot  be   depicted  or  represented  by  arEsts  in  any  medium   whatsoever.”  (IconoclasEc  Council,  754)  
  18. Iconodules  (Lovers  of  Images):   1)  Icons  are  powerful  didac3c

     tools:  “An  image  is,  aJer   all,  a  reminder;  it  is  to  the  illiterate  what  a  book  is   to  the  literate,  and  what  the  word  is  to  hearing,  the   image  is  to  sight.”  (John  of  Damascus)   2)  Icons  are  a  valuable  proxy  by  which  the  faithful  could   demonstrate  their  love  and  honor  for  the  divine:   “God  created  man  to  his  own  image”  (Genesis  1:27)   3)  Icons  are  a  valid  way  to  communicate  Christ’s   humanity  and  suffering:  “How,  indeed,  can  the  Son   of  God  be  acknowledged  to  have  been  a  man  like  us —he  who  was  deigned  to  be  called  our  brother—if   he  cannot  be  depicted?”
