I thought this was going to be like other LEGO movies out there, only with a biblical theme, but it is not. There is no animation... only still-pictures with voice-over. If you already know the biblical story, this will become boring very fast with no satisfying visuals to feast your eyes on.
The basic biblical story included in this film:
The creation of Adam and Eve and how they ate from the Tree of Knowledge and got kicked out of the Garden of Eden.
Cain murdering his brother Abel.
Since the world got filled with more people it also got filled with more sin. God covers the earth with the flood but not before putting Noah, his family and all the animals in the ark.
Many years after the flood the earth starts to get filled with more people and more sin, again. Now God punishes the people in Babylon, for building a tower as high as Gods own kingdom, by confusing their language and scatter them throughout the earth.
God promise Abraham to make him into a great nation (the land of Canaan : Is-Ra-El). At this point Abraham's faith is so strong that he would blindly sacrifice his own son Issac if God willed it.
Joseph gets betrayed by his brothers and sold as a slave. Later Joseph becomes Egypts favorite slave for interpreting dreams and becomes a free man who takes care of business for Pharaoh. During the seven years of famine Joseph is reunited with his father Jacob and his brothers.
The Pharaoh is worried that the Hebrews one day will rise up agains him so he puts them to hard work and kills every Hebrew boy that is born from then on. But the Pharaoh's daughter secretly brings a Hebrew baby boy (Moses) into the Pharaoh's household.
When Moses has grown up he kills an Egyptian, for whipping one of his own kind, and escapes Egypt. One day Moses talks to a burning bush which tells him that he will lead Gods people out of Egypt.
Moses returns to Egypt but the Pharaoh will not listen. God through Moses then releases 10 plagues on Egypt before the Pharaoh gives up. Moses splits the Red Sea and leads the Israelites back to Canaan while the sea swallows the pursuing Egyptians.
When Moses reach the Desert of Sinai, where the Lord had appeared to Moses as a burning bush 40 years earlier, he receives the 10 commandments.
Meanwhile Moses' followers, having given up on him, makes a new calf god of gold but the true God forgives them. Through the desert they eat mana from heaven for 40 years.
Moses passes his staff to Joshua, so he can lead his people to the Promised Land.
END of PART 1. (There is supposed to be two more parts/films).
