No imagery:

"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of
any thing
that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD
thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon
the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my
commandments" (Ex. 20:4-6 AV; cf Deut. 5:7-21).

Even so:

"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is
a shame unto him?" (1 Cor. 11:14 AV).

"Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long;
they shall only poll their heads" (Ezek. 44:20 AV).

The last Icon, from the source of the corrupted "Codex Aleph" (Codex
Sinaiticus) found by Tischendorf in the burn barrel there.

He has not just one visage.
See Jesus looking out of the faces of those in whose heart He lives.

“...found by Tischendorf in the burn barrel there.” the pieces of data you have accumulated in your head are sometimes astonishing! What wonderful tidbits ...
