This is what happens when the Bible is separated from history and reality. The bronze serpent, the heavenly statuary ordered by God in multiple instances of the OT, the wall paintings and mosaics uncovered at multiple ancient Synagogues -- where some Protestants got the notion that the ancient Hebrew world was devoid of imagery is beyond me.

Where is that bronze serpent today, the very one Moses held? This was a test of the Israelites for obedience. Those who looked were saved. Those who did not died. Nothing about praying.

“where some Protestants got the notion that the ancient Hebrew world was devoid of imagery is beyond me.”
The Jews who bowed down before images were condemned.
