My point was that the Israelites where not *only* from the children of Jacob, but they likely did resemble their neighbors ethnically since they did take wives from them (the women became Hebrews, and worshiped the true God, but their genetics didnt change)
What I mean is, I dont think that the 2nd commandment means ‘No visual art,’ but there is nothing wrong with that interpretation, since many valid denominations take that position.
