Stone Pillar Your

The Bible in pictures / statues of Jesus, etc?
According to Exodus 20:4, which says: "You shall not make an idol in the form of anything heaven above or on earth beneath or in the waters below "Leviticus 26:1 -". Do not make idols for themselves, or set themselves an image or a sacred pillar, nor place a carved stone in your land to bow down before him. because I am the Lord your God "If these two passages can be found in the Bible (there are actually more around, Deuteronomy 5:08, etc.) then why is it that the statues and paintings of Christ in the churches there? Also, many times large crucifixes established churches at times like Friday / Easter that are sacred and supposedly held as such sacred pillars. Also, keep in mind that not know what Jesus looks like, and as such fits the description of someone in the sky, while the image is considered an idol, because it can not represent what really looks like or can even be a picture of someone else.
The cross is an example of an idol or image.
