The Brick Testament website has
been updated today with four new illustrated Bible stories covering the two most
famous building projects from the reign of
King Solomon. First and
foremost is the Temple of Yahweh. The Bible says it took Solomon’s 153,600
forced laborers seven years to construct the original, while my LEGO rendition
took me about a month. By my math, that makes me a considerably more efficient
builder (but what do you expect from foreign slave labor, am I right?), but it’s
up to you to judge whether I’ve captured even a fraction of the original’s
glory. Of course, the original was destroyed 2,500 years ago, and nobody
thought to take any photos, so good luck with that. Then, of course, there’s
Solomon’s royal palace, which he spent nearly twice as long building and almost
no one remembers. Both can be seen in these four new stories:
The Temple of Yahweh,
Ark Brought Into Temple,
Solomon’s Palace,
God Threatens Violence.
Here’s a few preview images:

| That made my day. The last page of Ark Into the Temple totally grossed me out. But in a good way. Are there in fact the prescribed number of pomegranates? If so, I take my hat off to you! It looks like the proprtions are correct, too. (16 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)
