The Brick Testament is AWESOME.
It’s the Bible … told through Legos. You kind of have to see it to believe it.
Here’s a random sample:
Look at this dude.
Cain and Abel’s different offerings. (And of course we all know how THAT one turned out!)
hahahahaha Look at Noah!! I also enjoy the panic of the three horses in the background.
And here’s the flood. So creatively done. I love it.
Uhm … check out the Holy Ghost coming to Mary. (Also … I love how the angel has 5 o’clock shadow.)
I mean … this just kind of speaks for itself. God always looks the same. I love his mad eyebrows.
Check out the face of the Israelite with the black hair way over to the right, and also the one up and to the left. The wide open laughing mouth. Or is he fearful? Is he shouting? What the heck is going on with him?
Uhm … love this one.
A naked Lego Adam watering the flowers in Eden.
I love Adam’s little Lego rib.
Adam and Eve ate the apple. Realized they were naked, and became ashamed of it. They promptly covered up (in the Lego version it looks like they are going to a luau, or extras in a Tarzan movie) … but of course, you cannot fool God. The following image might be my favorite one: God, blurry in the background … approaching. Adam and Eve know they are going to be in SO MUCH TROUBLE. Look at her cleavage! Look at their faces!!
The whole project is an amazing and relatively insane accomplishment. So much work. Day-um!! I haven’t even looked at half of the pictures!
Hahahahahaaha! That’s great.
(They used the Lego Darth Vader for Balaam — Awesome. But where’s his ass?)
A lot of those characters are portrayed by Star Wars LEGO people. The robed figures are the Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Anakin.
I cannot STOP look at these. The “Instructions on Marriage” (New Testatment, The Epistles) is ESPECIALLY illuminating. Yikes!
How about the seduction of Lot, Ann Marie … I found some of the Lego positions highly disturbing. Just like the story.
The Instructions for Women in epistles is hilarious. Like: women are not allowed to speak in church, but the picture is of a woman noticing a raging fire in the back of the church and saying: “Uh … honey?” and her husband shushing her …
hahahahaha

Ok.
I’m v v glad I saw the “Epistles of Paul” part BEFORE I sent the link to my brother, the YOUTH MINISTER. Ye gads. I mean, he’s fairly open-minded, but LEGO cunnilingus? I don’t think that would go over very well, do you?
If I were a female lego figure, it would go over *quite* well, Lisa.
Lisa – hahaha What about the home decorations in those images? So funny.
My favorite, still, is the woman not telling people that the church is on fire because she’s not allowed to speak.
Tom Cruise: get another name if you want to post here. Joke’s over. For me, anyway.
Sheila,
Sorry. It was me. I keep forgetting to change the auto-info.
Oh no!!! hahahahahaha That was you???
Sorry that I just inadvertently yelled at you, Emily.
That’s okay. You’re right. The joke *is* over.
You didn’t really think it was Tom Cruise, did you? ;)
No, I didn’t think it was Cruise. hahahaha Can you imagine??
I thought the person MIGHT end up being a scientology apologist, though – just because they showed up out of the blue, and only posted (until now) on the Scientology topics.
My favorite ones are the “the head of the woman is man, the head of man is Jesus” ones with the interchangable LEGO heads.
I laughed so hard I think I peed.
Totally off topic but did you hear that Jen and Ben got married and yes, she’s preggers.
I give it 18 months.
Ok, one more.

Hahahahahahaha! Henny Youngman in the Holy Land.
HAHAHAHAHA henny youngman!!
Look at the helmet things on the guards in the background!! They look they’re extras in a blaxploitation film.
Those are TIRES!
I’m telling you, that site is HYSTERICAL. I love the one where the verse says something about the Israelites called out to Yahweh, and all the little LEGO people are going, “Yahweh!” “Yahweh!” “Yahweh!”
I’ve embarrassed myself several times today laughing at my desk.
i know …
I like when all they have in the little bubbles over their heads is an enormous exclamation point. hahaha
How bout this guy?
HAHAHAHAHA

THe Most Insane Thing I Have Seen on the Internet
The Brick Testament. I wonder how many hours this project took. John the Baptist in prison. “Bring me the head of John the Baptist.” The Israelits spies and Rahab the prostitute. Can Legos be NSFW? Birth of Jesus A very detailed look at the Book of Gen…
