No, they didn't.... Conciousness personified.. It is not too hard to figure out..
Already figured it out, pretty sure they like other ancient civilizations made up their own mythology.

Gen.1:26 "God created man in his own image and likeness."Does it refer to the bodily or biological form,because God is a spirit and man is earthly,it is also true that the body does not belong to the image,since God does not have a body.
Yes he does have a body, in genesis God is described as making footsteps, you needed a body to do that.

In Daniel he's described as sitting on the throne, you also needed a body to do that.

you would have quoted the verses for clarity.this in a nutshell means that man posseses some of the qualities of the almighty,but i think to exhude these qualities you must be pure in heart,a sinner is far from God,he does'nt carry his image and likeness.

Genesis 3:8 -Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden.


Daniel 7:9
"As I looked, "thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze.

An AI, for instance, is said to be created by men in the image of man, yet most AIs have no physical body or soul of their own. A doll is made in the image of a man, yet most dolls only have a physical semblance of a body and nothing else. undecided

It is always good to start simple when trying to understand such things. undecided

By the way, that image was later cursed by God in Genesis 3 vs 16 and so no man has since been born in the image of God since Adam and Eve. undecided

Who said Al is created in the image of man?
Is Al also created in the likeness of man?
Better go read genesis 5:3.

The Elohim looked like Adam and Eve.
