This article aims to cross-check the irreducibility thesis of Jean-Luc Marion’s theology with the platonic ontology. In his essay “God without Being” Jean-Luc Marion postulates the absolute freedom and God’s transcendence in relation to all the ontological determinations, including the primary condition that makes all the other possible determinations the “fact of the Being”. The implications of the Theory of Images and the distinction between “idol” and “icon” in the role of the divine in Plato call into question the theological irreducibility thesis. In view of a contrast between the irreducible theology to the concept of Being in Marion and the platonic ontology, the article examines the semantic distinction between “idol” and “icon” and the connection that forms the basis of the “metaphysical destitution”. The article reviews the platonic ontology through the epistemological proposal of a “thinking through images” as a mediation between the divine and the human.

Palabras clave : Idol; Icon; Being.
