HOWEVER.... while I agree with the Rambam that Hashem has no guf ugevi'ah,
how can we say that noone saw a picture of one at Choreiv? Shemos 24:10,
speaking of Moshe, Aharon, Nadav, Avihu, and the 70 zeqeinim, "Vayir'u
es E-lokei Yisrael, vesachas Raglav kemaaseih livnas hasapir..."
---------------------
It was a mental image, presumably, similar to how R' Aryeh Kaplan describes
visions in his books. So there was no Temunah, but they saw some mental,
spiritual manifestation of what Elokai Yisroel looks like in a world where
vision doesn't exist.
