Christianity (the OT at least) came about the a time of a Patriarchal nomadic society, hence the view of God as a bearded male in robes like a Middle-Eastern goat herder…

Shockingly, it also forbids any representation of any sort of the deity and teaches that no image can exist, an interdiction that continues (among orthodox Jews) to this day
