ReGenesis: Creation and The Garden What does a Bible illustrator do when he finishes the last book of the Bible? Goes back to the start, of course! Today, June 3, 2010, The Brick Testament is "born again" with the first new additions to the Genesis section of the website in eight years. Turns out I missed a rather important story the first time around. "Which one?" you ask. Oh, I don't know, only the very first story in the Bible! So here it is in all its glory: God's creation of the world in seven days. And since the authors of the Bible were not content to include just one creation story, I have gone ahead and illustrated the second one as well, also known as The Garden of Eden. Longtime fans of The Brick Testament will note that this latter one is a newly illustrated version of the very first story ever presented on this website when it launched in October 2001. Once you've fully enjoyed the new version, feel free to compare the old vs the new side-by-side. And for those who just can't let go, the original illustrations will remain online here. More to come in the weeks and months ahead... -The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith |
