An another way to look at it is to notice how Adam (representing all of mankind) barely reaches out to God, and leans on to the earth. Meanwhile God reaches out fully to reach Adam, because God loves us and wants to be with us but as humans with a sinful nature, we barely make an effort to reach for God and rather cling on to earthly things.

What a unique take. I’d never considered it before, but you almost have me convinced now. I almost feel like the relaxed state of Adam with the blank stare into nothingness, vs and the dynamic depiction of God, represents Adam in thought about why he is here on this earth. Reaching for the stars, contemplating what it means to live. To that note it brings life as to why their fingers are not making contact. Adam is reaching for something he can not physically touch, but God (something only Adam can see in his mind) is a contemplative thought reaching out towards Adam.

@@eaterbattery I believe an art piece’s subjective interpretation can exist only if the author deems the work itself subjective. If he doesn’t then any interpretations oftentimes hold much less substance than the original message as one can only hope to understand what’s inside someone else’s head, the only clues being an author’s biography and background. If I take, say Norman Rockwell’s “Freedom of Speech” and say “Well, I see this as a poorly-clad worker standing up to the oppression of the well-dressed bourgeoisie as he’s the one who gets to speak over them”, that interpretation would sort of work, yet ludicrously disregard the original idea that everyone deserves equal freedom of speech; the social standing of men depicted was picked out by Rockwell for a whole another set of ideas, certainly not socialistic or revolutionary ones. How can one express his own ideas in a world where everyone interprets them in their own selfish, often self-serving ways?

The shape of the drapery resembling a brain could also be a representation of God as the mind which operates creation. This would also have interesting implications since it looks like God the father is spilling out of the drapery with all the other figures as if the representation of God is not really what God is, just how God chooses to represent himself to Adam.

God is above humanity, better than anything humanity could ever dream of making, it's turely blasphemous to think that a perfect being was created by the most imperfect things to walk the earth

in my subjective opinion i think the painting represents humanity and the relationship they have with god, that why their fingers aren't touching. god is reaching out arm fully extended trying to reach and touch Adam, but Adam's hand is relaxed and unextend, all Adam has to do is to put his finger up and he has touch god but in the painting he's choosing not to do so, not only to me does it represent creation but also free will. again it's my opinion Michelangelo if he was still around would probably debunk what I said, but he's not around it's up to use to decided what things mean to us.

Regardless of how you interpret it, who doesn't love a mystery at the end of a day? Perhaps even the notion of God (or the workings of our own mind) being elusive, fickle or slightly beyond our reach is also what's just as enduring about this.

that’s a really good interpretation

This is why it’s important that the discussion surrounding the interpretation of art must move beyond merely the artist’s intent and into what the art tells us about the artist, about its origins, about the world, about ourselves. We begin by asking what the creator means with their creation and proceed to wonder what the creation say about the creator. And that encompasses the interpreter as well. A perfect work of art to illustrate this.

I, like some others here, think the second interpretation leaves even more room for interpretation with the idea that both were created as a projection of Michelangelo. I think that’s kind of like the Gnostic idea of a divine spark being in each of us. Kind of a mirror of Merkabah mysticism, and how God’s throne lies at the end of a labyrinth within our own psyche. Maybe that lends credence to both interpretations being correct at some level. Creations, yet at some level, manifestations of God. God is, after all, described as transcendent AND eminent. Maybe we each experience that little God voice in our heads a bit differently. Maybe that’s why faith is a personal journey🙂

Wow I’ve never thought of this painting as Adam creating “God” but now it makes so much sense. With the idea of God being in the brain and almost a thought of Adam, I’m interpreting this picture as Adam reaching for a perfect ideal version of himself, his highest self, and that is the idea of God. It’s above him, just out of reach, and you can tell Adam doesn’t have full faith in himself, which is why he’s lazily reaching out. But God has full faith in him, which is why He’s reaching out so confidently and erect. I think it’s perfectly fitting of what we as humans deal with when we’re trying to become better people and a better version of ourselves. All the doubt that we deal with chasing our “highest” aspirations. Amazing! This channel is amazing!Just earned a new subscriber! Thank you!

As myself being a Christian I have to say that though I disagree it still is a very interesting thought that I am a little suprised by(not rly bc I've heard of this idea bf) but I did like when you said that it can impact even people outside the Christian world and that hypothesis can rise from this work. Though in Christian theology God doesn't have gender nor a skin color when talking about the Father I found your idea interesting about what you said. Though Adam probably would've been a tanned person that God in a more "accurate" work would be tanned also since they are in the middle east where the people lived back then or Africa rather somewhat. I respect the fact that people might disagree with me but I either way enjoyed the video though it didn't convince me. Love your work man and have an awsome day everyone.

As a devout Christian/Catholic, Michelangelo probably wouldn't flip the role of the creator and created, but it's an interesting twist. God the Father, in the Judeo-Christian tradition, is a pure spirit, without a physical body. So the standard Christian understanding of humans, being "made in the image of God" is chiefly in human's soul/spirit, not so much the physicality like shape, size or color. God endowed human beings above all other animals with rational eternal souls, similar to His own. The two most important powers of this "spiritual/soul image" that humans get from God is the will and the intellect. Free will to choose love and intellect to know. A human being who know and love God, a human being who know and love his neighbors, fulfill the very purpose of which he was created for. The Judeo-Christian anthropology transcends race, genders, social-economic status of human beings. It gives humans inherent dignity, value and rights simply because he/she is God's most beloved creations, carrying God's very soul. This world view is beautiful and good for human flourishing.

There are so many Christians in these comments being very narrow-minded about the second interpretation, as if the very idea and thought exercise is harmful in some way. It's refreshing to see someone who is secure enough in their faith to explore the idea. I agree with you, both interpretations can be true at the same time, a kind of symbiotic relationship between God and humanity. The point of presenting two different readings isn't to disprove one or the other, but rather to show that each view can reveal different ideas.

I love this new perspective a lot. It totally makes sense.

Amazing. I have always kept a distance from this painting because of my beliefs. I thought that nobody would interpret it as I did just because of the symbolism of the piece (yes, I'm that egocentric, lol). But today I decided to look it up. To me, the meaning of the painting has always been the latter. How else could we explain the strong connection to the thought that God is only in our minds? Those angels surrounding him could be those pushing religion as an agenda, in very simple terms. It's truely comforting when I find my observations to be on the right path. I think I'm going to like this channel.

You mentioned, that the red bubble that surrounds God and the angels, might be the representation of a brain. But I think, there is another way to look at it. That red bubble, might also represent a womb, supporting the idea, that Adam created God, even more. So, the red bubble is a brain on one hand, implicating, that Adam imagined a God, and on the other hand, also a womb, implicating, that through Adam's imagination of God, God was created.

Once I heard a thought of Tolkien, I don't remember how it exactly went, but was in the lines of: if we were created by a creator God, by his own image, then we would be creators as well, in the sense of creating art. And being an aspiring artist this motivates me so much, knowing that making art is an aspect of Our Lord we all carry.

Oh I absolutely love it! Now I'm disappointed for not having thought of that before! I love the idea that a god creating a being in its image makes this being a creator. And which of these beings are the ultimate creators if not artists? Brilliant! Thanks for the input!

I hope you are doing well, friends 🥰. I invite you to worship our creator and to see the evidence of his existence. In his book, the holy Quran, more than 1400 years ago: scientific miracles (expansion of the universe, the chemical composition of humans, the front of the head function, the mountains functions as pegs, factor determines Gender, and etc.….), historical miracles, metaphysical miracles, numerical miracles, linguistic miracles, arrangement miracles, the unmet challenge of bringing something like it, the preservation miracle, and others. The prophet of Islam, Muhammed (may blessing and mercy of God be upon him) miracles: the prophecies of his advent in the Bible and the Torah, the historical miracles performed by him that we knew by narrators, the scientific miracles In his sayings, the metaphysical miracles and knowing some things in the future by the knowledge of the creator, and others. Logical proofs: Religious comparisons, Issues in the religions except Islam, The superiority of Islam over other religions to guarantee rights and the survival of life, the innate of worshiping a god (mentioned in the Quran), the illiteracy of the prophet of Islam and the Benefits of saying that this Qur’an is from him, the perfection of our creation (mentioned in the Quran), and others. for further information, don’t hesitate to ask me.

I love this interpretation/ creative perspective,I had never thought of it that way, it’s so fascinating to hear different interpretations

so glad i found this channel.

This essay reminds me a lot of my favourite part of Dan Simmons' Hyperion, in which he reinterprets the myth of Abraham as Abraham testing God as much as the other way around. İt made a huge impression on me when I first read it.* *Spoiler alert but it goes like this: Abraham fully commits to killing his son because if God intervenes then He is a God of love and therefore worthy of Abraham's affection. İf God doesn't intervene then He isn't a God of love and thus is undeserving of worship.

great video guys. keep it up

Thought provoking interpretation. Thank you.

Also, may I add that the figures with God almost looked like they were supporting him, almost looked like they were holding him up. Why would a supremely powerful being require support?

I always thought that it was Adam, not God, who looked more comfortable in the painting. God, to me, is the one struggling to reach Adam, almost scaping from the creatures around him, and extending his finger, similar to the gesture of a newborn baby who reaches to the warm of their parents, to touch the slightly open hand of Adam, which appears more dominant. It´s also Adam´s hand position the element that strikes to me the most in this analysis, since although God is indeed a little bit more elevated in the painting, it is Adam´s hand, in contrast to his position, the one slightly upwards, dominanting God´s hand. But hey, I agree that this is a much more modern take on the painting, but I still appreciate the new perspective. Thanks!

Absolutely stunning. I want to get this as a tattoo, but I very much disagree with religion and the church. However, I love renaissance paintings and the thought of God being in a human brain, which the church very much disagrees with, makes me want it even more now. Thank you for this wonderful insight.

And what about all the dead religions which are no longer worshipped? They all believed just as fervently as you do in their own religions, that their Gods were real and the world would be destroyed if they stopped believing. And nothing happened!

@@okuyasuniijimura but the universe doesn't work under stability. Since you are not completely religious I assume that you belive in the big bang theory. When the universe was created there were an equal amount of matter and anti matter, they were formed in pairs. Matter and anti matter when together annihilate each other to leave only the purest of energy. If that was the case our universe would have been just energy. But every one in billion chances matter would survive the annilation and that matter is what that made our current universe. We seen bodies made of matter but not anti matter. The amount of anti matter is very low compared to matter in our universe. If everything was truly stable, nothing would've existed.

I love the way you thought about this!

What a fascinating interpretation! At first I was quite surprised by the thumbnail of the video which says “what if God is the creation of Adam” however, as I continue to watch, it surely does make sense of how God can or possibly be the creation of Adam. Especially, at the latter part of the video.

The positions of their fingers give me the feeling that God is active, pointing towards Adam to give him life, while Adam's hand is passive, receiving it. The words at (4:30) are from Michelangelo??? Where did he write it? Is it a book?

I wonder if Adam ever see satan or lucifer I think he would beat them like here's my theory that if god sends Adam to defeat lucifer as he once said he was created in he's own image so imagine that satan attacked and Adam sees the attacked and reflects it back like ur fighting ur own self so when Adam sees it he though it is he's own image trying to do the same thing back to it

I've always been taken with this line of thought from Alfred North Whitehead: "It is as true to say that God is permanent and the World fluent, as that the World is permanent and God is fluent. "It is as true to say that God is one and the World many, as that the World is one and God many. "It is as true to say that, in comparison with the World, God is actual eminently, as that, in comparison with God, the World is actual eminently. "It is as true to say that the World is immanent in God, as that God is immanent in the World. "It is as true to say that God transcends the World, as that the World transcends God. "It is as true to say that God creates the World, as that the World creates God.

another way to look at it a bit egocentrically is that the red drapes represent a womb and humans can create another human making them a god in some sense

Of course the real question must be who created the ground that Adam lay on?

I was just there. Wish I had seen this video before going. What an interesting take on it.

I love the ideas presented, but it simply cannot be the case that Adam is creating God, since God is the active one, as you yourself pointed out.

Late but I think this perspective is interesting even if you don’t take it as “humanity made up religion”. Faith is by nature believing in something without concrete proof and our minds fill in the infinite gap. It’s all about perspective on how we perceive God

It may come as a weak point of view, but I think it's possible he intended both interpretations. Even though the Renaissance had a strong Catholic presence, they still had a Roman (and therefore Greek) influence. Religious syncretism, especially in those days was something that was surely discusses at length. When the wine was flowing and Michelangelo and his friends were discussing art, poetry, philosophy and more, it's easy to see him coming to the conclusion that religion may be a creation of man. Does that mean it's blasphemy? Of course not. If an omnipotent God exists, there's no way he would be offended by mortal musings. Does that mean Michelangelo was a secret atheist? No. I'm sure he intended the painting to represent strongly both views. That's the tension that has kept this fresco as iconic as it is. It plays both sides. It seems unfair, and to the western mindset it surely is. But that's what makes it interesting.

The word carried connotations of something being untrue or at the very least and exaggeration of truth but I don't think the base word actually means that. Mythology without those connotations simply refers to the shared religious storyline of a culture or multiple cultures.
