What is the term for the worship of images?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

This item asks for the term used to describe the worship of images.
First, note that the provided answer field indicates the correct term is 'idolatry'. Since the answer options are not supplied in the dataset (the answer_options array is empty), I cannot evaluate each option against the question. However, I can explain the concept and why 'idolatry' fits the prompt.
Idolatry is defined as the worship or veneration of idols—physical images, statues, or representations—rather than worshiping the deity itself in its transcendence. In religious and historical contexts, idolatry refers to treating images as divine or as a conduit to the divine, which is distinct from venerating or honoring sacred objects in some traditions.
If there were alternative choices, we would assess them against this definition: options that describe reverence toward sacred objects, symbols, or deities without elevating images to a divine status would be incorrect; options that emphasize the worship of physical images as the primary object of devotion would be correct.
In summary, the term for worship of images is idolatry, as that word directly captures the act of directing religious devotion toward images rather than the divine itself.
