Isaac, why do you say that the Bible lacks illustrations? What about this one? http://catholic-resources.org/Dore/Images/OT-021-med.jpg Isn't it part of the MT?

See Ps. 65:11(10). All we may say about SULAM is that it is a lofty and massive structure or contraption (ladder, staircase, ramp, basket elevator ––– the bible unfortunately lacks illustrations) by which to convey vertically.
