Whoops!  Forgot to get back to on these.  Let's see.

Oh, shame on me!  I've lead you astray.  The other two new photos are
actually in Genesis.  But they take place in Egypt, so I got confused.  @8^/
My apologies.  They're in the very last Genesis story, "Jacob and Joseph Die":

I had originally done these embalming scenes with a modified Tusken Raider
minifig for the mummy, and LEGO had only just released sets with the
brain-in-a-jar piece, so I didn't have it yet.

The shameful truth is that it's just the same 4 Edomite soldiers over and
over again.  Good cut & paste, bad LEGO building technique.  @8^)

It's definitely possible for things too look "too BURPy", so I can
understand that.  Using two colors to recreate the BURP shape, though, seems
to hide a lot of its inherent BURPiness.
