God and art
The term 鈥榠dolatry鈥 means to worship an image or a created object, and this is considered a major sin in Judaism. For this reason, God will not be represented in any art form and you will not see images or statues of God in any synagogues or Jewish places of worship as you would in other religions.
This law in Judaism comes from the second of the Ten Commandments.
You shall not make for yourself a sculptured image or any likeness of anything that is in the heavens above or in the earth below.

Some Jews will write the word as G-d, missing out one letter. This is in case the paper on which it is written becomes damaged or is treated in a disrespectful manner.
