Well it's not eye candy perse. And you can get theology from walk throughs of 
the temple. I mean take a walk through of Solomon's temple and then take a 
walk through Solomon's house and tell me where his treasure lied. But 
additonally I think it helps you place yourself there. I mean I was at the 
Holy Land Experience a little while ago and they had a street drama from the 
life of Jesus. It was so moving to actaully be experiencing something like 
that no matter how in accurate that I had to fight back tears. There are 
things to be learned from looking at images of things like the temple and the 
alter. Theology things.

As for the linux cli interface for sword there is indeed one. It's called 
diatheke it's part of the base sword package. I've actually used it on 
ocassion it's decently good.
