'Appearances' in the Bible

Deep inside it, the likenesses of four living beings were visible. Their appearances were similar to human forms,

"Indeed, the LORD God of Israel says that he hates divorce, along with the one who conceals his violence by outward appearances," says the LORD of the Heavenly Armies. "So guard yourselves carefully, and don't be unfaithful."

Stop judging by appearances, but judge with righteous judgment!"

Now those who were reputed to be important added nothing to my message. (What sort of people they were makes no difference to me, since God pays no attention to outward appearances.)
