Why does the Bible and Qur'an refer to God as 'He'? Is there any where it's explicitly stated in the Bible or Qur'an that God revealed himself as a male being? Your contributions would be appreciated. Thanks |

In god there is male and female. The male aspect of god is the creator, the father, the one who makes laws. The female aspect of god is the quiet one, because she is not the law-maker, she is not the "head" but she is the manager of the universe. She is the "mother-nature", she is in the background managing. This is why she seems not to be recognized and societies and nature has generally be modeled on this pattern, where values are determined by the masculine gender. 1 Like |
