com, but for the first time 1,500 photographs of these creative designs--depicting the Old Testament from Earth's creation to the Books of Kings--are brought together in book format.

Not every book in the Bible is included; for example, it's missing a few epistles and some books from minor prophets, but all the big players are here, such as Genesis and Revelation, and it has plenty of material from the Old Testament, such as the Books of Kings, Books of Samuel, and Joshua.

The man behind this creative endeavour is a self-proclaimed atheist who has an interest in the Bible.Smith’s subtle touch brings out the nuances of each scene and makes you reconsider the way you look at Legos—it’s something that needs to be seen to be believed.
