God says, let us make man in our image? Why

the us? And what does image tell us about who

we are? This short line holds the key to identity, purpose,

and the story God is writing with humanity. When scripture

says that God made humanity in his image, it gives

us a name and a role in one breath. The

words are simple, but the idea is deep. An image

points beyond itself to the one it reflects. In the

ancient world, people knew this right away. An image was

not only a picture, It was a sign of presence

and a reminder of authority. So when the Bible says

that men and women are made in God's image, it

sets us apart from every other creature. It tells us

that human life is marked with a special purpose that

no animal, mountain, star, or angel shares. In the same way,

the earth has beauty and greatness, but only people are

called images of the living God. Imagine a coin with

a king's face on it. The coin isn't the king,

but wherever it goes it shows who rules that land.

In the same way, we aren't God, but our lives

are meant to carry his likeness so people can see

what he is like, truthful, just loving. This likeness is

not about height, skin tone, age or strength. God is

not a body, so the likeness is not physical. It

is about capacities and callings that set humans apart. We

can know God, answer him, speak words with meaning, form promises,

keep trust, seek truth, and choose love. We can understand

right and wrong, feel the burden of conscience, and sense

the joy of peace when we do what is good.

We can imagine a future that is better than the

present and then build toward it. We can receive a

word from God and carry it into our homes and

our work. In all these ways we echo our Maker.

But this God given likeness is more than inner qualities.

It also carries a role in God's world. In the

first chapter of the Bible. The words about image are

joined to words about stewardship and care. That pairing is

not an accident. God marks humanity with dignity and then

gives a charge. The charge is not to exploit, but

to tend, not to crush, but to cultivate. The Image

of God means we were made to mirror God's wise

rule in a way that brings life to the places

we touch. This is why the image of God leads

to responsibilities in how we treat the earth, how we

treat animals, and especially how we treat one another. When

we speak to a person, we are speaking to someone

who bears the mark of the King. Even when a

person is weak, ill, poor, young, elderly, or in the

middle of failure, this likeness remains a reason to show honor.

That honor does not erase justice or truth, but it

sets the tone for how justice and truth are pursued.

The image of God also explains why humans hunger for meaning.

People across cultures ask the same questions, why am I here?

What is right? What is beautiful? And true? Those questions

rise because we were made to know the one who

is the source of meaning. When no answer is given,

the hunger does not go away. It turns into restlessness, anger,

or despair. The likeness in us reaches for the one

whose image we bear. When people meet God's word and

God's ways, something in them recognizes home. That recognition is

not a trick of the mind. It is the image

turning toward its source. Some have wondered if the image

means that humans are little gods. The Bible never says

that we are creatures, always dependent on our maker. The

image is real, but it does not make us divine.

It means we are like God in ways that fit

creatures who are meant to represent him. If we forget

that we are creatures, we take gifts meant for service

and turn them into tools of pride. But if we

remember that we are images signs that point to another,

then reason, speech, and power become ways to carry God's

goodness into daily life. The image also helps us understand

why sin hurts so much. Sin is not only breaking

a rule, it is breaking a reflection. When we lie,

we speak words that no longer mirror God's truth. When

we harm, we deny the worth in others that God

himself placed there. When we worship lesser things, we hand

over the reverence due to the one whose image we bear.

The result is inward fracture and outward damage. Yet even

there the image is not destroyed. It is clouded, bent

and wounded, but not erased. That is why guilt can

be healed, truth can be learned again, and a person

can be restored by grace. The image gives a reason

for hope even after failure, because it ties our identity

to God's design rather than to our worst moments. One

more truth brings the meaning into full light. The image

appears in a pair male and female. That pairing is

part of the gift, not a side detail. It shows

that the image is shared across the whole human family.

The man does not bear more image than the woman,

nor the woman more than the man. Both are given

dignity and calling. The differences between them do not lessen

or raise worth. They enrich the picture. Together. They show

that God's plan for humanity is not solitary. It is relational.

From the start. We learn to mirror God's love as

we live in real relationships where patience, faithfulness, truth, and

forgiveness are needed every day. In this way, the image

connects identity and community. We discover who we are, not

by escaping people, but by learning to love them well.

So the image of God means this. We carry a

likeness that points to the one who made us. We

are given a role to reflect his wise care in

his world, and we are invited into relationships that display

his heart. Because this is true, human life has a

weight that nothing else can match. This is not heavy

in a crushing way, but in a glorious way. The

God who formed the stars gave human beings a part

in his work that is both humbling and lifting. We

bow our heads because the gift is holy. We raise

our heads because the gift is ours. So who is

the us and our inn? Let us make man in

our image. The Bible is firm that God is one,

that truth stands at the center of Israel's worship and

flows into the faith of the Church. Yet at the

very opening of Scripture the language turns plural when human

beings are made. How should we hear that? One path

is to notice what is already In the first lines

of Genesis, the spirit of God is present over the

waters before any form appears. The divine word is active,

bringing light from darkness and setting boundaries where there was

only waste and deep. The rest of scripture later reveals

that this word is not just a sound, but a person,

the eternal Sun, through whom all things were made. Without rushing,

we can say that Genesis gives us the parts of

a song that will be fully heard later. The Father,

the Word, and the Spirit are there. When the text

uses us and our we may be overhearing a holy

counsel within God's own life. Christians later call this reality

the Trinity, not to solve a puzzle, but to guard

the witness that the One God has Father, Son, and

Holy Spirit in perfect unity. Another path is to notice

other moments in the Old Testament where God uses plural

language in moments of weighty action. When a messenger is sought,

the question comes in both singular and plural at once,

who will go for us? After the first sin? God

says that the man has become like one of us

in knowing good and evil. These are not slips of speech.

They are windows that let us see a richness in

God's life without denying his oneness. The Bible speaks simply

and without apology. It does not explain itself. In these places.

It lets the word stand and invites faithful listening across

the whole story. A third path that some have suggested

is that God addresses the heavenly host, angels and other

spiritual beings who attend his throne. The Bible does show

scenes where God stands among the host of heaven, but

scripture nowhere says that any being other than God creates,

and it never says we were made in the image

of angels. If God addresses the host, he does not

share his creative act with them. The plural language would

then show a royal court where the king speaks before

he acts. He alone does the making. The court witnesses

his word and his work. This reading can sit beside

the first path without strain, as long as it keeps

God's creative act in his hands alone. Some also talk

about what is called a plural of majesty or a

plural of deliberation. In this kind of speech, a great

ruler might use we to mark dignity or to think

out loud in a solemn moment, if that is in view.

The words underscore the gravity of the moment when humans

are made. The problem is that this kind of speech

is clearer in later languages and cultures than in the

Hebrew of Genesis. Even if it plays a small role,

it does not carry the full weight of the verse.

When we hold these paths together and test them by

the rest of the Bible, one view rises as most fitting.

The God, who is one, is not lonely. The Father,

the Word, and the Spirit act in harmony. Creation is

a work of the One God. Yet the three persons

are truly involved. The Father sends and blesses, the Word

brings all things into being, and the Spirit hovers and

fills with life. So when the text says, let us

make man in our image, we can hear the voice

of God speaking in the richness of his own life.

The words do not divide God. They shine a light

on the fullness of who he is. This does not

exhaust the mystery, but it does protect the truth. The

One God is wholly himself, and in his own life

there is a fellowship of love that spills over into

creation and later into redemption. This understanding also helps explain

why the New Testament speaks of Christ as the image

of God and the agent of creation, and why it

speaks of the Spirit as the giver of life. The

plural words in Genesis are not an accident to be

explained away. They are a doorway through which the rest

of scripture walks. When we step through, we find not

a crowd of rival powers, but the one Lord, whose

inner life is love shared and given that love frames

the making of the first man and woman. They do

not come from loneliness in God, but from abundance in God.

God does not make humans because he needs help or company.

He makes humans because He chooses to share the joy

and purpose that already exists in his own life. Hearing

the plural this way is not only faithful to the text,

it also protects us from two errors. The first error

makes God as solitary force whose power has no room

for love. That view leads to fear, not worship. The

second error turns God into a crowded sky of competing wills,

which leaves us unsure which voice to trust. The Bible

gives us neither. It gives us the one God, whose

word is firm and whose heart is shared, Father, son,

and Spirit. When he says, let us make man in

our image, his words carry both power and tenderness. He

speaks as king and as Father. He speaks as creator

and as giver. His word is strong enough to build

a world and gentle enough to place a child in

a garden. If the image gives identity, it also gives

a task. In the opening chapter of Scripture, the words

about being made in God's image sit right next to

words about ruling, filling and ordering the world under God.

The order is important. We are images firm rulers. Second,

our authority does not begin in us. It is given

to us for the sake of what God loves. When

rulers forget this, power turns into control, and control turns

into harm. When rulers remember, power becomes service and order

becomes blessing. To imagine this calling, think of a garden.

A garden needs someone to plan and to do the

little things. Soil must be turned, seeds must be planted,

weeds must be removed, and water must be given at

the right time. In the same way, human stewardship touches

every part of life. Families, farms, crafts, cities, schools, and

markets all need wise care. The image of God is

not only about personal faith. It is about the way

our hands, words, and decisions help the world around us

reflect the goodness of the one whom we do not

make the world into paradise by our effort. But we

do keep pushing back what is wild and wasteful so

that life can flourish. This is not a burden. It

is a joy when it is done in the fear

of the Lord. This calling is royal, but it is

also priestly. A priest brings the world to God in

worship and brings God's blessing to the world. Image bearers

stand at that meeting point. When we give thanks for

a meal, when we bless our children, when we speak

truth in love, when we build something useful and beautiful,

we are doing priestly work in a royal way. The

world is not wholly on its own. It becomes the

place of God's praise when images of God live in

it with faith and obedience. This does not turn work

into worship in a careless way. It turns work into

worship in the way Scripture means our whole lives offered

to the one whose image we bear. This also helps

us understand dominion. Many worry that dominion means domination. The

Bible will not let us read it that way. God's

own rule is the model for ours. He blesses sets

boundaries for life to thrive, provides for the weak, judges

what destroys and lifts what is crushed. To rule like

God is to carry that pattern into our sphere of influence.

A parent who nurtures with wisdom has dominion that mirrors

God's rule. A boss who speaks truth, rewards honesty, and

guards the dignity of workers reflects the king. A farmer

who cares for the land in a way that can

endure to the next generation is practicing dominion that does

not eat the seed grain of tomorrow. A judge who

insists on fairness shows dominion that refuses to sell truth

for gain. These are not special acts for a few,

They are every day acts for everyone. The image of

God makes ordinary life wholly ground. Because the calling is royal,

it is also accountable. We do not get to set

our own standards. The first chapters of Genesis show that

our rule sits under God's word. When humans cross the

line and try to seize what is not theirs, they

do not rise. They fall. The path of life is

not to reach for God's throne, but to receive God's trust.

That trust is heavy enough to make us serious and

sweet enough to make us glad. It binds us to

the Lord in love. He does not hand us the

world and walk away. He stays near and speaks, blesses, warns,

and guides. The calling to rule, fill and order becomes

a daily walk with God in our places and tasks.

The image as a royal calling also shapes how we

see every person we meet. If every person bears the image,

then every person has a sphere where their stewardship matters.

Not all callings are the same size in human eyes,

but all are real in God's eyes. A widow who

prays and blesses her neighbors is exercising dominion that pushes

back darkness. A young believer who learns a craft and

works with honesty is exercising dominion that makes space for

others to live. A leader who yields a right for

the sake of peace is exercising dominion that mirrors the

humility of the true King. In this way, the image

gives backbone to our daily faithfulness. We do not wait

for a platform to serve. We serve where we stand

because we are images of the God who serves. This

calling helps us reject lies about human worth. If we

are images, then worth is not measured by income, fame, education, health,

or age. Worth is given by God and recognized by

his people. This does not flatten our differences, but it

does refuse to rank them. In the church, the strong

learned to lift the weak, and the week learn that

their lives carry weight in God's kingdom. In society, laws

and customs can be shaped to respect the image in

every person. To act this way is obedience to the

first words God spoke about us. The first chapter of

Genesis begins the story, but the rest of scripture carries

it forward and brings it to completion. The image of

God is the thread that runs through creation, fall, promise, redemption,

and the hope of what is to matme. If we

follow that thread, the Bible's unity shines. After the man

and the woman are made, the serpent enters and sin

bends the relationship between God and his images. The image

is not erased, but it is marred. The mind that

was meant to think God's thoughts after him becomes clouded.

The will that was meant to choose good becomes divided.

The tongue that was meant for blessing learns to curse.

The hands that were meant to build and tend, learn

to grasp and take. Shame enters, fear enters, and hiding enters.

The garden, a place of gift becomes a place of loss.

But even here the story does not end. God seek

speaks clothes and sets a path forward. Pain and death

now mark life. Yet promise is given that the brokenness

will not have the last word as its generations unfold.

The image theme surfaces in different ways. The violence of

early chapters shows what happens when humans exercise power without God.

But even in the flood story, God remembers his purpose

for the world. Afterward, he restates human calling and sets

boundaries to protect life. The basic dignity of human life

is upheld because humans are made in God's image. The

image shapes justice. It teaches us that bloodshed is not

just a social wrong, it is an assault on the

one whose image we bear. Justice, then is not a

human invention, but a recognition of God's claim on human life.

The story then narrows to Abraham's family, through whom blessing

will spread to all nations. The image theme is not

often named here, but it is not absent. God calls

a people to reflect his carriage among the nations. He

gives them a law that shapes their worship and their

life together. If they keep it, the nations will see wisdom, mercy,

and holiness. They will see a living picture of what

humanity under God looks like. When Israel fails, prophets rise

to call them back, not only for their sake, but

so that the world might still see the image restored.

The many laws about care for the poor, honesty in trade,

purity of worship, and protection of life are not random.

They train a people to bear God's likeness in public life.

At the center of the storyline is the coming of

the one whom the New Testament calls the image of

the invisible God. In him, the image is not only restored,

it is displayed in perfection. He is what Adam was

meant to be and what Israel was called to be.

He rules by serving, speaks truth without falsehood, keeps faith

with the Father, tends the weak, confronts the proud, and

lays down his life for those who rejected him. In

his hands, power never turns to cruelty in his mouth,

Truth never turns to flattery or poison in his heart,

Zeal never turns to rage. Watching him, we finally see

humanity as God designed it. This is why those who

met him could say that to see him was to

see the Father. The image becomes visible in human flesh,

and the world is given the clearest window into God

that we can bear. But his coming is not only example.

It is rescue. The marred image cannot be straightened by

effort alone. We need forgiveness for what we have done

and cleansing for what we have become. In His cross,

our sins are born. In his resurrection, new life begins.

That new life is not a vague feeling. It is

the image being renewed inside us. The heart is softened,

the mind is cleared, the tongue is trained, the hands

are redirected. This is not instant perfection. It is a

steady work of grace that lasts as long as we live.

The scriptures speak of this as being conformed to the

image of the sun. The Spirit does this work in

us day by day, as we turn to God in faith,

obey his word, and live among his people. In every season,

he takes what is crooked and makes it straighter than before.

He takes what is stained and makes it cleaner than before.

He takes what is afraid and makes it braver than before.

Over time, others begin to see the family likeness. The

church is a community where the image is being renewed.

It is not a club for the strong, but a

workshop for the willing. In that workshop, God uses ordinary

means scripture, prayer, fellowship, and the table of the Lord.

He uses suffering not to crush but to refine. He

uses service not to drain, but to train. He uses

hope not as a dream, but as a promise anchored

in Christ. Together these means shape men and women, boys

and girls into people who look more like their Savior.

The result is a kind of quiet brightness. Believers do

not glow on the outside, but their lives begin to

shine with patience, mercy, courage, and truthfulness in a dark world.

This is no small thing. It is a sign that

the Creator has not given up on his first plan

for humanity. The story line does not end with the

church's work in this age. It reaches to a day

when Christ will appear and the renewal will be complete.

The scriptures say that we will bear the image of

the Man of Heaven. That does not mean we become

less human. It means we become truly human. At last,

our bodies will be raised, our minds made clear, our

hearts made whole. Sin will have no place in us.

Tears will be wiped away, not because loss never happened,

but because loss will be healed. Beyond our power to

imagine the world itself will be made new. The curse

will be lifted. The works that were done in faith

will not be wasted. Craft, culture, and community will be

set free from vanity and decay. That future is not

a dream of escape. It is a promise that God

will finish what he began when he said, said, let

us make man in our image. To hear the Bible

with ancient ears, it helps to remember how images functioned

in the lands around Israel. When a great king ruled

a wide territory, he could not be present in every town.

He placed statues of himself in distant cities and along

trade roads. Those statues were more than decoration. They were

signs that said, this place belongs to the king. His

law reaches here, his protection covers the people here. Priests

also tended images in temples as symbols of a god's

presence among worshippers. These practices were known across cultures. Israel's

neighbors saw them daily. Now place Genesis one beside this world.

The Bible does not tell people to carve an image

of God and place it in a building. Instead, it

declares that the living God placed his living images across

the earth, not one statue in one temple, but men

and women in every place. This is a stunning contrast.

It breaks the common pattern and corrects it. If human

beings are made to bear God's image, then the true

place of worship spills out of stone rooms and into fields, markets,

and homes. If the king marks his rule by setting

living images in his world, then the law and love

of that king are meant to shape ordinary life, not

only sacred spaces. This also helps explain why Israel was

forbidden to make carved images of God. The command is

not a denial that images can teach. It is a

refusal to let lifeless objects replace the living images God made.

A statue cannot think love, speak truth, do justice, or

show mercy a person can. When a people bow to

carved images, they step away from their own calling. They

trade the glory of bearing God's likeness for the emptiness

of worshiping works of their own hands. The prophet spoke

with fire against this trade, not because they hated art,

but because they loved the God who made people to

be his living artwork in the world. The ancient setting

also explains why the Bible ties image to rule. A

statue of a king marked a region as under his authority.

In Genesis, the image marks the earth as a place

where God's way is to be done through human stewardship.

That is why in later times kings in Israel were

judged by how well they reflected God's care. Did they

protect the weak, did they refuse bribes? Did they lead

the people to honor the Lord. A king's failure was

more than personal sin. It was a failure to bear

the image well in public office. But the standard did

not apply only to kings. From judges at the gate

to merchants in the market and parents at the table,

everyone had a place to bear the image rightly. The

law trained the people to think this way, to see

everyday choices as chances to mirror God's character. Historical context

also shines light on the plural language in Genesis. Royal

courts in the ancient world often pictured kings surrounded by counselors,

and hosts. When kings spoke before acting, they might do

so in the presence of their court. The Bible uses

that image at times to describe God's heavenly throne, But

unlike human kings, God needs no advice, shares his glory

with no rival and nod, and keeps creation in his

own hands. The court imagery, then is used in a

way that teaches without confusing. It shows God's majesty and

the ordered life of heaven, but it does not make

God dependent on any one. He is the source, others

serve his will. In many cultures, the image of a

God was believed to house the presence of that God

in a special way. Care was taken to place the

image properly and to maintain it. Genesis answers this with

a claim both bold and gentle. The true God is

not contained in objects and cannot be managed by rituals

that humans invent. He comes and goes as he pleases,

speaks when he wills, and binds himself to his people

by promise, not by human control. Yet he does choose

a special way to show his presence in the world

through human beings who reflect his character and keep his word.

The place where his presence is known. Is not stone, wood,

or metal, but hearts that fear him and hands that

obey him. This shifts worship from a task we perform

to a life we live. It makes devotion a matter

of truth, mercy, and faithfulness in all things. The ancient

backdrop helps us see the honor and the humility in

the image. When a king placed his image in a land,

he was making a claim of ownership. When God placed

his image in the world, he was claiming the earth

as his own and inviting humans to share in his rule.

That is pure honor. But the image also points beyond

itself to the one it represents. That is pure humility.

We are not the owner, We are the sign. We

are not the source. We are the witness. In a

world where people are tep it either to shrink from

their calling or to seize what is not theirs, the

image keeps us steady. We can step forward with courage

because the King has placed us here. We can step

back with reverence because the King is the king, not us.

The thread of the image runs into the future. The

prophets speak of a day when the glory of the

Lord will fill the earth as the waters cover the sea.

That promise is not only about shining light from the sky.

It is about the world itself ordered under God's rule,

with people living as they were meant to live. The

image bent by sin will be set straight. The nations

long at war with God and each other will learn

a new song. The ground that bears thorns will bear fruit.

The lion and the Lamb are pictures that say the

curse will be lifted in that day. The original word

about image will be fulfilled in ad way that cannot

be lost again. How does that future come Not by

human progress alone, and not by despair either. It comes

through the one whom Scripture calls the last Adam and

the first born from the dead. He has already stepped

into our history, lived the human life as it was

meant to be lived, died and risen. His resurrection is

not only a sign, it is the beginning of the

world to come. In him, new creation has started. Those

who belong to him are already being renewed in knowledge

after the image of their creator. This renewal is quiet

and deep. It takes root in local churches, families, friendships,

and callings. It is seen in reconciling enemies, in faithful marriage,

in honest work, in care for the overlooked, in worship

that is true, in patience under trial, and enjoy that

does not come from comfort but from hope. Prophecy looks

ahead further still. It tells us that the one who

ascended will return. When he appears, we will be like him,

for we shall see him as he is. The image

will not be a sketch. It will be a finished portrait.

Bodies raised, minds cleared, loves purified. We will bear a

likeness that is human and holy. The world itself will

be set free from its bondage to decay and will

share in the freedom of the glory of the children

of God. That freedom is not the freedom to do

whatever we want. It is the freedom to do what

we were made for, without inner war or outer threat.

The first charge to be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth,

and exercise wise rule will be fulfilled under the everlasting

reign of the true King. Work will not be vain,

rest will not be fragile, community will not be brittle,

Worship will not be mixed with fear. All of this

flows from the image restored. Prophecy also guards us against

small hopes. If we think salvation only means rescue from punishment,

we will miss the breadth of what God intends. He

does rescue, and we bless his name for that. But

he also renews, restores, and perfects. He does not throw

away his first plan for humanity. He completes it. The

God who said let us make man in our image

will not settle for a heaven where his images are

saved but not renewed. He will fit his people for

his presence, and fit his world for his people. The

city that descends in the last pages of the Bible

is not empty. It is filled with people who bear

God's name on their forms heads, which is another way

of saying they openly reflect the one they belong to.

The first garden is not forgotten. Its life spills into

the last city. A river flows, trees bear fruit, and

healing is the daily atmosphere That is not the canceling

of history. It is the mending and crowning of it.

This future hope does not make the present meaningless. It

gives the present shape and strength. If the image is

our destiny, then every step toward that image now matters.

Patients matters, truth telling matters, mercy matters, making, healing, teaching, planting,

and governing with humility matter. These are not just good deeds,

they are signals of the kingdom to come. They show

that the King is already at work making his images

look like himself. When that work is hard, Prophecy reminds

us that our labor in the Lord is not in vain.

When that work is hidden, Prophecy reminds us that the

Lord sees and will reward openly when that work is opposed.

Prophecy reminds us that the King's victory does not depend

on the strength of his servants, but on his own

power and promise. Prophecy also purifies how we think about

power in the last day. The power that lasts will

be the power that serves. The Lamb reigns, and his

throne is called the throne of God and of the Lamb.

This means that the shape of our renewed humanity is cruciform,

formed by the Cross. We will not rule by force

or trick. We will rule by love and truth. The

world groans for this kind of leadership even now. The

Church is called to practice it, bearing witness that true

orth authority is life giving the image of God restored

in us is not a mask of control, but a

face of holiness. The more we are like Christ, the

more our authority blesses rather than bruises. The prophet saw

this and sang of it in their own way. We

now see it in the face of Jesus and know

that this is the future. Many believers carry wounds, losses,

and limits that seem to bury the image. Bodies fail,

memories fade, relationships break, sins cling. The promise of the

image renewed is not a denial of these pains. It

is a pledge that they are not the end. God

keeps our tears. He gathers our works as seeds, not

as trash. He will make all things new in a

way that honors the path that brought us there. The

story of the Image is the story of a God

who never abandons his first word. He spoke, and it

was so, he blessed, and the blessing stands. He judged,

and his judgments are true. He promised, and he will

not fail. The day is coming when the world will

look at humanity redeemed and say, this is what God

meant when he said, let us make man in our image.

If this video helped you grow deeper in God's Word.

I want to personally invite you to be part of

what we are building here. Every video on this channel

takes many hours of study and careful research to make

sure we bring you content that is faithful to scripture

and worthy of your time. If you would like to

support this mission and help us keep making these videos,

you can find a link in the description below to

give a one time gift or become a monthly supporter.

Every gift, no matter the size, goes directly toward creating

more content like this, and if you are not in

a position to give right now, that is completely fine.

The best thing you can do is subscribe, share this

video with someone who needs to hear it, and keep

studying God's Word with us. Thank you for being here,

and may God bless you richly.
