Cool, a nice little Friday present.
Unpopular banquet: I wish some of these had the background in sharper focus--it's pretty much impossible to see construction details on the settings. Of course, this may be your intent depending on how much detail they actually have. In 22:6, for some reason I really like the guy in the back right getting punched in the stomach. Interesting way to wear a samurai helmet--I'm not actually sure whether I like it, but you need to try things like this for variety. I do like the tiles as shields and will borrow that idea sometime. I really like the simple picture for 22:12 "The man was silent"--humorous in its simplicity. What is the source of the head on the left hand (viewer's left) guard in 22:13?
Use of Parables: Not a lot to comment on. Is there any detail to the unfocused
town in 4:11-12, or are those buildings single white bricks?
Jesus and the Law: Again, no real construction to comment on. Do you know if
there are any other printed tiles that work as texts (maybe from the HP theme?)?
I also have about six of that tile you use here and just use them again and
again, but it would be nice for some variety.
Jesus and the Rich: Hmm, back to the old way of kneeling. That always looked
odd to me. I prefer the way you did kneeling with bricks and slopes in these:

I like the use of the big doors as siding on the brown building, but am confused
as to what the cannon bases are supposed to be.
Ooh, now the white building comes into sharper focus. I like the inclusion of
the old princess torso (the white one with the red necklace) in the doorpost--it
integrates perfectly with the printed arch. I reallized part way through why
the camel was hanging out in the background--nice foreshadowing. Is Jesus
really holding that gearshift? I didn't think that minifig hands could grasp
that part--does that use tape or something? (Which raises the philosophical
question: could God create an element out of ABS that He couldn't grasp?)
