Sphere: Related ContentThe Brick Testament - bible done in lego
October 9, 2007This is priceless. The Brick Testament’s purpose is to give people an increased knowledge of the contents of The Bible in a way that is fun and compelling while staying very true to the original versions. To this end, all stories are retold using direct quotes from The Bible.
Yup.. the bible recreated with legos!

Tt 2:9
Slaves must be obedient to their masters in everything, and do what is wanted without argument.

1 Peter 2:18
Slaves, you should obey your masters respectfully, not only those who are kind and reasonable but also those who are difficult to please.
This is just priceless. For more bible legos check out The Brick Testament. Oh and BTW, this was created by a Reverend to teach the bible and it’s not a joke (I think it’s flipping hilarious). It’s done using real biblical quotes, just with lego’s acting out the parts.
