The Bible takes place almost entirely in the middle east and I would guess this guy's mental reel of it looks like an Imagine Dragons concert.

I have seen multiple images like this and I always like them:
My headcanon is that the Old Testament was a god specifically of the Jews and some upstart god took over (possibly after murdering him) in the New Testament days and then proceeded to spread his influence to non-jewish people while aggressively eliminating any opposition. Wherease in the old days people believed in various gods, this one started of campaign of montheism, depriving the rest of them of faith and eliminating them one by one. Nowadays he's kicking and screaming because the rise of atheism in many parts of the world which used to be his strongold is depriving him of energy and thus he finally faces annihilation.
But have you ever Split yourself in, uh, three parts, and orchestrated and lived through the death of one of them? I can fully believe it does things to the mind even if gods, no hijacking necessary.
Plus, isn’t the New Testament god generally more chill? Disregarding the followers’ urge to spread their word of course.
