I think about a world to come where the books were found by the golden ones, written in pain, written in awe by a puzzled man who questioned, "What are we here for?" All the strangers came today and it looks as though they're here to stay.

Disturbing Scenes From the Brick Testament

The Brick Testament claims to be, "the world's largest, most comprehensive illustrated Bible." What this description fails to say is that all of the illustrations are done with Legos. A recent article from 22 Words titled "10 disturbingly violent biblical stories depicted with Legos," selects only the most violent illustrations from The Brick Testament. Here they are:

Cain Kills Abel


The Flood



Job's Suffering



Caananite Kings Executed


Ehud Kills Eglon

 
Jephthah Kills His Daughter


The Levite Dismembers His Murdered Concubine


David Collects and Delivers Philistine Foreskins



Judas Kills Himself


Hell
