The image of Stalin as a father was one way in which Soviet propagandists aimed to incorporate traditional religious symbols and language into the cult of personality; the title of "father" now first and foremost belonged to Stalin, as opposed to the Russian Orthodox priests.
Obraz Stalina ako otca bol jeden zo spôsobov, ktorým sovietski propagandisti začlenili tradičné náboženské symboly a jazyk do kultu osobnosti: titul "otec" teraz v prvom rade patril k Stalinovi ako protiklad k predošlému označeniu otca patriaceho ruskému pravoslávnemu kňazovi.
