iconodulía
  9

It is the worship of a representative figure in a religion. It is not the same as idolatry, where the idol has a divine character and is not just an artistic icon that deserves respect, although it is nothing more than a representation of divinity. Still, or precisely because of it, it is rejected by iconoclasm. The word comes from the Greek 949; 953; 954; 969; 957; (eikon "similar image") 948; 959; 965; 955; 949; 953; 945; ( douleía "servitude" ) . See suffix -dulía.
