Hi board.... I am curious what the opinions are from the Jews on this board and the Messianics.
I ran across this article on the OE board and found it puzzling to say the least.
I understand from scripture when God said to create artwork for the Temple, but I also have had the impression that if God doesn't say do it, the Jews would not do it.
This is a picture of a Temple that has walls of artwork. Of course the EO's are labeling it as "Icons"... looks to me more like pictures telling biblical stories... I would find it hard to believe that any God fearing Jew would ever venerate these paintings...
Looking for opinions and someone who is more knowledgeable than I of Jewish worship customs.
