Yes. We portray her as knowing, which is why she was so emotional and bothered when Jesus brings up the bridle because she knows it means he’s not coming back. And why she’s so sad at the end of the episode saying “soon.”
Okay, cool 👍
Of course she does! She and Jesus discussed many times and currently in s3 e3 His time had come. The horror on her face each time Jesus was physically taken by Roman guards screamed no, not yet!
She knew. Definitely. She is distraught. Even if she isn't crying. Also... notice her change of subject is to the dead husband/father. She is obviously thinking about Jesus' mortality. ☹️
The tomb is foreshadowing of Jesus death. This makes sense that she’s not ready for that. I doubt any of us would be ready for that.
I think also it was just her fear of his death with him acknowledging himself as the mesiah. She knew that death was the punishment for heracy
I like it that they keep bringing back characters such as Dinah and Rafi. This is excellent storytelling. I thought Lazarus, Martha and Mary were wonderfully portrayed. And we know they too come back in later seasons. Further. by mentioning them they introduce James and Jude as characters who will appear. Also, we see Joseph's goodbye prayer and loving lessons, but he lived several years longer to at least the Temple teaching. There are little touches like Jesus' concern over the ignored brown dog are delightful. Mother Mary's emotions are gripping and often heartbreaking. Wonderful moment when Jesus walked through the hostile crowd looked to heaven and smiled. Excellent episode. Good point concerning the 1000 year old leather bridle being in such good condition! And I agree we'll probably see it used on Palm Sunday.
@BlackholeTtson452 Good question! And I'm not sure to be honest. I usually go scene by scene and not episode by episode. In episode 2 I loved Matthew with his parents, Simon and Atticus, Jesus with the 12, and the heart stopping scene between Jesus and Little James. Really the entire episode. And in episode 3 Jesus and Mary, Jesus with Joseph, Jesus with Lazarus, Jesus in the the synagogue, Jesus and the angry crowd, and Jesus, Lazarus and Mary at Joseph's tomb. Again, the entire episode. Both well written, well acted, well directed, good music. All thoroughly professional. I liked it that The Chosen saw the need to make Dinah and Rafi be skeptical, even though they drank the wine at Cana. Very human. I thought Martha and Mary showed their faith, even with little dialogue, just looks. Wonderful. We see drama in both episodes, and rising objections and threats. It can be dangerous to follow Christ. When I went to F5K -- I was one of the 10,000+ -- you didn't see threats and persecution, but the miracle was not the place for threats, but celebration, even triumph. I think we'll see a lot of rising tension in the next episodes as the 12 go 2 by 2. Jesus plainly told then to expect persecution. Eventually they will give their lives. But none walked away.
@BlackholeTtson452 Yes, I was in Texas for F5K. I even show up for about 2 seconds in the official trailer sitting in front of Judas, brown head covering, looking to the right. My 2 seconds of anonymous fame!. While there during a break on the last day, I even played a bit of music for the couple that got married. I brought a small harp with me as a prop. F5K was incredible. I would do it again in a heartbeat. ... Yes, I think we'll see the 12 go out 2 by 2 in episode 4 and probably 5. I think we'll see it almost as flashbacks, as the 12 have gathered again in Simon's house. The unclean water in Capernaum is an interesting plot thread. I'm curious as to how The Chosen will develop it. We'll also see why Gaius is distracted; that is, his servant is ill. Jairus's daughter is also ill. Both are poisoned from the water perhaps?
I think the bridal was used when Joseph And Mary rode the donkey into Bethalem.
That's what I was thinking too.
Jesus came here to be human. To know how it is to be human. So, I love that THE CHOSEN are showing Him being human.
Remember what Simeon said when the infant Jesus was presented to him. He turned to Mary and said "...a sword shall pierce your heart!"..." Luke 2:29-32. Also remember Jesus uses her words of Cana back to her, If not now, when? Dallas said in the AfterShow he's not going to write episode 3s any more. That practise has run it's course.
Which is actually verse 35, but what an interesting oracle.
@@williammaddock9179 ?
@@reginapontes5672 You referenced Luke 2:29-32, which, in the ESV, is
29 "'Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word;
30 for my eyes have seen your salvation
31 that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,
32 a light for revelation to the gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.'"
But the oracle goes on further, before it gets to the phrase you quoted:
33 "And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him.
34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother, 'Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed
35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.'"
I realize that you likely were not quoting from the ESV (I confess a bit of a bias, here, as I was a member in the same congregation as several of the ESV's contributing translators; I even rafted with the Old Testament Chair and his family, so I hope my bias is understandable, and forgivable). I was simply pointing out that the phrase you quoted was not quite in the reference you gave. Look at it this way though: now they get to see the whole immediate context! 🙂
@@williammaddock9179 what does verse 35 mean?
@@DebisDesignDiary How would YOU feel if YOUR child died in front of you?
Just looked up ancient leather work and they have examples of Roman leather sandals that were found in a Fort in Northern England called Vindolanda. In fact they found over 4000 examples of preserved Roman footwear.
Given that this was a greatly valued piece of family history that they saw as something worth preserving and passing on, it's more likely they would have looked after it's condition to keep the leather supple and the metal work in good repair.
I think she knew. At His dedication she was told a sword would pierce her heart. I believe she knew.
Hey my friend. What a show, this Season Will be amazing. Jesus is the King of the universe 🙏
With God all things are possible
If she knew Isaiah 53 , she would know His fate. He willingly poured out his life unto death…..now , if she did not know the scriptures or never heard it read out loud or if Jesus never talked with her about it, maybe not.
My humble opinion is she knew. 🌹
Mary has known the Bible well, just read the Magnificat
I agree with you. It still wouldn’t make it easy to know that your son will be killed soon.😢
As a fan of The Chosen (but not a believer), I enjoy your analyses very much.
Praying for you to become a believer. As Jesus says, it's the way to the Father. Blessings to you as you make decisions for your future.
Will be praying for you to believe the word of God and your eternity. Just also want to say, the truth will set you free🙏🏻✝️
The first step is to admit that you’re not a believer. God bless and here’s hoping the veil will be lifted soon. Happy New Year!!
SportsBall- option 1 Jesus wasn’t very athletic Option 2 he had skills! A couple catches show that but he chose to graciously loose or he may wish to avoid any warrior traits as the people were looking for a warrior king to liberate them. Just a thought
Wow! Option 2 is an excellent take on that scene. Interesting!
Interesting thought
Myrrh was given to the baby/child Jesus and his young family by the wise men from the east in honor of his sacrificial death. AND Jesus knew, so I'm sure out of compassion, he would have prepared his mother.
Plus... Luke 2 Simeon warns her that her soul would be pierced.... AND see allusions to it in Isaiah, Zechariah, Deuteronomy, and the Psalms which Mary and Joseph would have known.
This episode way amazing, definitely one of the most moving and impactful thus far.
Joseph holds a very special place in my personal faith (Roman Catholic) snd he was given such a beautiful portrayal that brought me to tears. And I think his role is very relevant to so many people right now, and it’s one if the reasons I think this show works so well.
I agree with your comments on Jesus’ skillset lol He was fully human and fully God, so it’s very interesting to explore. I have noticed he often looks to heaven at times, and I think the show is perhaps trying to hint that Jesus can gain knowledge at will, but he chooses when to do that?
Mary knew when she accepted God's plan as Jesus' mother. God told her that her son would be our savior and would give his life to save us.
Simeon prophetises that Mary’s soul would be pierced by a sword so she knew that something terrible was going to happen although what it was not she did not know .👰🏻
I also enjoyed how they habitually kiss the Mezuzah as they go in and out of their residence.
I don't think Mother Mary knew that Jesus was going to die ahead of time, but as a mother she knew that He was in constant danger and she was afraid for Him.
Also, if Joseph's family was taking care of the bridle by keeping it safe from the elements and regularly oiling it, maybe it could have survived? I think this is one of those things that we're supposed to take with a grain of salt and just accept. Lol
Great video! Have a blessed week! 🙏✝️❤
Mary knew from the moment she arrived to present Jesus to Simeon in the temple. Yes she was foretold all of it. And quietly pondered it in her heart.
Asking about the little brown dog. Shows his humanity
Mary knew what Jesus mission was going to be. I believe she knew from the visit from the Angel that God had found favor in her.
Proverbs 26:3
A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,And a rod for the back of fools
Mary knew. Anna and Simeon told her, Gabriel told her, she pondered all that was told her in her heart. She meditated on all of it. She was there at his birth, the only person alive at this point, from the beginning. The disciples were not privy to her experiences, knowledge. She didn’t tell everything she knew. What is the mule/donkey bridle’s purpose?? She understood he wouldn’t be back “home.” (Btw, where is “home?”) There are so many spiritual metaphors in the episodes, but especially this one. Again, where is “Home??”
Hello Family, always a great commentary!
Ahh yes, that's what it's for - the Palm Sunday donkey. Love to hear more about the symbolism of this.
G'day! As far as I know, the feast of Rosh Hashanah was not one of the feasts which required a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Passover, First Fruits, and Pentecost were the ones which required the pilgrimage.
It would seem Simeon let her in on it. See Luke 2
God could preserve this knowing it has a future in Jesus
The question of whether Jesus was good at sport or not seems unimportant to me. The Trygon scene does reinforce for me the 'history' of Jesus's childhood relationships in Nazareth.
Plus Jesus put his divinity aside when he was born and solely counted on God the Father to help him. I don’t care whether Jesus was good with sports or if he had to practice how he wanted to deliver a sermon. They are trying to show his humanity. His “signs and wonders” came from God while Jesus was human. Once he arose from the dead he reclaimed his seat at the right hand of the Father.
I disagree that Jesus would not have told Mary about his eventual death because of their relationship, my husband had a very close bond with his mother and as he learned he shared with her everything I think it would be the same with them. I just think he would have shared more with her than even the apostles, and he did tell them he was going to die they just did not understand it at the time because it was hidden from them.
Yes, they thought he was lying; also they did not take him seriously because they knew him.
From The actions of Herod Killing how many babies , toddlers , to Romans and Sanhedrin killing false prophets. Mother Mary had to know that Jesus was under constant probable death from Birth. She just had to accept that the Lord has a plan for him, and mothers intuition has to kick in too, moms know when something is not right.
I think that Mary knew that Jesus was going into harms way, that what he was continuing to do will make him a target, and though she may have some knowledge (given her by Jesus, though that is questionable, since he wouldn't desire to give her too much information), she is still his mother, and would be both frightened for his safety and life. Even in this episode, she says that she loves "Z" because he can protect Jesus.
Luke 2:25-35
Mary and Joseph heard the prophecy of Simeon.
Yeah, I have no clue about that whole thing surrounding bridle.
I’ll try to make a short video about it, I’ve had a bunch of people asking me about it.
Maybe she suspected but was afraid to know the truth or afraid to ask Jesus. I think about people I’ve lost , I can feel God preparing my heart for loss but I still clung to hope that I was wrong and God would heal them.
I believe she knew He would die. It was hard on her, but as long as He was there she was okay. It would be like a Mother with a child that had a disease that was terminal.
I think a mother knows when her child is anguished. Jesus would have been anxious about His coming fate! Of course He was…he was human! He suffered and He knew what was to come was insufferable! But suffer He did and His poor mother….I can not even express the pain she was suffering. To see your beloved child crucified undeservedly is more than most could bare!
This was a great talk on episode 3. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts Brandon & your wife's as well.
Hoping you can answer this. Jesus would’ve lived in Nazareth, but Lazarus and Mary and Martha were from Bethany. How would they have ever known each other as young children? Is it likely Lazarus and two sisters would’ve moved from Nazareth to Bethany as a family? It’s very far from there maybe 60 miles?
I think Mary knew because when Mary brought Jesus to the Temple when her purification time had ended (40 days after Jesus’s birth) Jesus was presented to the aged Simeon in the temple and he told her a sword would pierce her own soul. She knew from that time that he was going to die.
Love this episode. Home town lifestyle is typical for the passionate Israelites 1st century
Either in the aftershow or the livestream, they seemed to indicate that Mary knew.
The bridle would be around 17 or 18 hundred years old. I like the theory of God preserving the Israelites' stuff while they were in the wilderness. But you mentioned parchment--and we have found parchments (Dead Sea Scrolls anyone) that is still intact after 2000 years. Also, I used to have a 200-year-old cavalry saddle that was in good enough shape I could still use it for riding my horses. Leather care can preserve leather for a long time--and I imagine olive oil would be even better than saddle butter. Just a thought.
Think of this, the Great Isaiah Scroll which is dated to 100-325 BC was preserved in it’s entirety and was found in 1946-7. If you say 100 BC that would mean it survived 2046 years before being discovered in Qumran. So if papyrus, a material much more delicate than leather, can be preserved why not leather?
Jesus told Nicodemus that just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, so that whosoever believes in him may have eternal life. I do believe that his mother Mary would know what he came to do.
Deuteronomy 8:3, 4 is the only plausible explanation I can find to explain how a bridal would last this long intact.
So yes. I do believe she knows. My top 3 would be The woman at the Well (season 1 finale), sooo many good season 2 episodes but I have to say Season 2 episode 1 with Melech and Samaritans. And as much as season 3 episode 2 was phenomenal. I was balling in the movie theater when Matthew & his Father reconciled last night's episode is in my top 3. It was amazing.
I’m an atheist. I learned what logical fallacies are and the different types, and I’m not interested in getting reconverted However, I really enjoy the show, and I donate $15 a month.
Jesus was just "playing" with them with sports ball. He could win blind folded.
Everything lasted longer back then. People lived to be 500,700,900 years old... 😊
Episode 3 from the first 3 seasons are written by Dallas himself.
All things are possible with God
It would be easy for Jesus to just "speak" restoration into the bridal, after all we know Who He was.🙌
I wonder when Jesus became conscious that he was God?
I asked this question too!!! :) but I have a theory it would be pretty early. I read that we retain memory from as early as 2.5 years old wch maybe is also the age we can process words and basic communication, and simple concepts. Also, as soon as Samuel was weaned, his mother brought him to the temple to serve, and he promptly heard God calling him. Little Samuel didn't know it was God and kept running to Eli the high priest, until he taught Samuel what to do. So I would put it at pretty much before Jesus was 3. Just my theory 😉
I am sure He knew from the beginning of his life. Jesus and the Word is one person. He just didn't show it to people at once.
I don't understand the bit & the bridle and why it was important that he got it out of storage.
Thanks
No problem! thanks for the support!
Remember at the wedding Jesus told Mary His time had not come yet…. Now here He says I believe my time has come so I agree what Mary is talking about is Jesus revealing himself as the Messiah.
When did Joseph die? The custom of the day was that the body was put in a tomb for about a year. Then the bones were then placed in an ossuary and buried elsewhere. That would place Joseph's death at a year of less.
Scripture contradicts The Chosen on the "brothers" of the Lord: James and Jude were not sons of Mary the mother of Jesus.
“among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.... Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulchre.... Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the sepulchre.” (Matt. 27:56, 61 28:1);
“There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome” (Mark 15:40).
“But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene” (John 19:25)
"Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James" (Jude 1:1)
If we compare these parallel accounts of the scene of the crucifixion, we see that the mother of James and Joseph must be the wife of Clopas.
Early church history from Eusebius/Hegesippus (c. 110 - c. 180) also confirms this interpretation:
"After the martyrdom of James and the conquest of Jerusalem which immediately followed, it is said that those of the apostles and disciples of the Lord that were still living came together from all directions with *those that were related to the Lord according to the flesh (for the majority of them also were still alive)* to take counsel as to who was worthy to succeed James....
They all with one consent pronounced *Symeon, the son of Clopas, of whom the Gospel also makes mention;* to be worthy of the episcopal throne of that parish. He was *a cousin, as they say, of the Savior.* For Hegesippus records that Clopas was a brother of Joseph [foster-father of Jesus]....
The same author [Hegesippus] also describes the beginnings of the heresies which arose in his time, in the following words: ‘And after James the Just had suffered martyrdom, as the Lord had also on the same account, *Symeon, the son of the Lord's uncle, Clopas,* was appointed the next bishop. All proposed him as second bishop because *he was a cousin of the Lord.* ’"
Of Course She did.
She knew right from the beginning.
i mean in the OT there's prophesies about the lamb. If she knew He's the son of David, the Lamb of God she most likely also knew He was going to be sacrificed- like the lamb with Abraham.
I was wondering if Mary said no about the box as if she was saying no she didn’t know where it was. But now watching you explain that she didn’t want him to start his ministry makes me think she was saying no to him starting now. Also his dad Joseph knew that he wasn’t going to get married and have kids so I wonder what it was that they knew about Jesus and how he would die. So I’m very curious about it.
They would all have known Isaiah well. A very descriptive death scene of God's lamb.
Jewish New Year would of course have been in the spring when things start growing. And a new day would have started and ended at sunset ❤
I believe the reins for a donkey, is going to be used when Jesus comes riding on a donkey through Jerusalem.
The Exodus (using the biblical chronology) events occurred around the mid-1400 BC, not the 12th (1100s) or 13th (1200s) century. Family traditions and stories being what they are, unless God did a miracle on the leather, I doubt Josephus's family heirloom is old.
Remember Mary received a word when Jesus was a baby, a sword shall pierce your heart, which I believe was the death of Jesus,
"My Son, you are the reason for my pride. You are my beloved Son, who only brings me joy. This battle against evil will be difficult, but remember that I and Your Father will be by your side at all times. Keep on shining, my precious Son. Keep shining and guiding humanity to the path of light. As you have done since the beginning of time."
- Barbelo for Jesus at His Baptism.
I think the reality would've been that even if Mother Mary hadn't known for certain that Jesus was going to die, she would've known it was a great possibility. She, as well as the disciples, would have known the ramifications of publicly proclaiming to be the Messiah. I think the difference between Mary and the disciples is that to Mary He was a son and to the disciples He was the Son. Mary would've seen his humanity more clearly than anyone else. She would've been afraid for her son. The disciples, on the other hand, would've assumed that in His divinity He would escape death as the Messiah. That's why the warnings would've went over their heads. I also believe, as a mother of a son myself, that Jesus and Mary would've talked about His future and His fate many times in His life. I'm glad The Chosen portrayed her as knowing, it seems the most realistic to me.
I think she knows God told her
Mary knew that Jesus would die because they mentioning about his time not yet coming.
Thanks for the breakdown ❤️ It was a good episode, but nothing overly amazing - to me that is. I must say the synagogue scenes were the best, as well as the moment on cliff(?) when they tried to sentence Jesus to death. Lots of powerful moments in those. But then, I was wondering the wery same thing about the bridle, as in, how could it last for 40 generations, but the story is nice and there is symbolism in there for sure.
I feel like She knew that he was going to tell people that he is the messiah , and that would lead to death at some point if he kept it up
Hm, yeah, but deciples lived with Jesus for 3 years, Mary for 30 years and she knew and saw much more than they: Simeon warned Mary that she will suffer and that some people will be against her Son. Then she heard from Jesus that He has to be in His Father's house so He has to do His Father's will even if it's painful for her and she has to let Him do this. Luke highlights that Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart so she was thinking about it a lot.
Besides, she knew jewish scriptures and prophecies. Moreover, kings gave Jesus a Myrrh as a symbol of his future death. Plus, it would be cruel not to warn Mary, so I guess they were talking about that, maybe not directly but in some way for sure. I don't think she knew everything but she knew about some sacrifice that was prophesied.
How about when the community is going to push him off the cliff, Jesus does communicate that it is not His time yet and he will be okay?
Why would she be so upset if he was announcing he was Messiah.Simeon in the temple at Jesus dedication told her a sword shall pierce her heart, I think she knows his life was in jeopardy but not necessarily knew it would be crucifixion
Jesus obviously knew the scriptures from a young age, as we saw when he stayed behind at age 12 and was teaching the rabbis. It was not innate because he was completely human, but the Father instructed him as he grew. I think he would have shared this with Joseph and Mary because it seems they level with each other. So he knew what Isaiah 53 meant and so Joseph and Mary would have known as well. Yes she knew, but did not know he would be in his 30s when it happened. Simion, at the temple when he was circumcised, told her a sword would pierce through her own soul. Oh, and why would he naturally be good at sports? He was human. And, at least the Jesus being portrayed here, when he was 12 asked Joseph if he could read on the trip. He was not a typical kid, so why would he want to excel at sports?
Okay so much criticism! Here goes, first. Stop overthinking the bridle. Remember a generation is 40 years. Things can be preserved well through many years. Not to read to much into it but a bridle isn't just a thin piece of leather like a shoe. It's well made a not probably used so much since it's more symbolic than worn. Stop overthinking it. Enjoy the message because it's obviously significant!!
As far as Jesus apologizing or not, I think we should distinguish between sin and mistake. I think as man He could have done some unintentional mistakes. I don't want to be heretical.
Never mind the bridle's age, WHAT is the significance of it?
During the time in the desert articles were preserved so they didnt wear out like clothes sandals , leather ? So possibly bridle had that anointing also?
Hmm true maybe!
The bridle is like just remembrance of the the slavery and freedom from egypt. I think the bridle must be newly bot when the old one was damaged I think its just for remembrance. And the bridle journey will be ended with Jesus because that was the singe that Jesus was the Redeemer from slavery.
Maybe we're reading a bit much into the bridle. It's probably just something to add to the storyline and symbolism.🤷♀️
Yeah obviously it's not a biblical element, though I like things to be logical when I'm following a story, so I thought it was an interesting thing to add in without much context of how it survived.
Actually it was the whole shoe.
40 generations, to me, would be 600 to 800 years, if each generation is 15 to 20 years apart. Leather would survive if consistently reconditioned with oils every 3 months.
But with that, there have been some 20 to 40yo barn-find cars with like-new leather seats.
The desert does preserve well.
As a strong supporter who was there from the beginning, so far I am not as impressed with S3 as I was 1 and 2.....the acting, dialogue seems more manufactured which doesn't hit the soul the same way. Still well worth watching 🙂
I think it's getting better each season. Yup! Definitely worth watching. ❤️
I still don't really understand how a commandment is Do Not Murder but then there's a list of a hundred things you should murder someone for.
Those are killings not murders.
@@jamesajiduah2001 yeahhhhhhhh I don't see the difference
A picture of JUSTICE. Murder and the death penalty are not the same.
@@MissFrisky1221 so then aren't you sinning every time this walk past a tarot card reader without killing them
Maybe the jews were, but I am not bound by the old covenant.
Sooo many advertisements, I am starting to lose interest. But I love to hear you.
Is not that bridal for a mule. And this is for when Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a mule?
If they oiled it, it may have lasted longer?
I thought they washed their feet when they came in, because of the dusty unpacked roads.
Mary knew.
Is it just me or does the fact that Rafi's wife is best friends with Mother Mary would have made an awkward post cliff situation:
Diana: Yeah...Sorry my husband almost killed your son...
😂 so true….
But he never said "I am the law".. Christianity vs. Mormons ?
But Jesus is “The Word” which includes the law, and he gave the law to Moses so technically He is the law
@tracyconway1660 sure, but it's still viewed by many as something taken out of the book of Mormon and not the bible. It's caused quite the controversy. There's many videos about this here on UA-cam. Personally, I haven't considered myself religious, but this show has got me "reevaluating" my beliefs.
I like how Fr. Casey (Upon Friar Review) points out that, while "I am the Law of Moses" is not an exact quote from Scripture (as opposed to, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life," or, "I AM"), Jesus is Priest, Prophet, and King, and as Priest, He not only offers the sacrifice but is the Sacrifice (Paschal victim/Lamb of God); as Prophet, He not only proclaims the word but is the Word (made flesh Who dwelt among us); likewise, as King, He is not only the arbiter of the law but is the Law (of Moses/of God/the Way to eternal life). The choice of words is interesting, maybe even questionable, but does not present a theological inconsistency.
Merry Christmas!
@christiekraft226 it's interesting how many have made it such a big deal. I was just pointing it out. Overall, I love the series. It's absolutely got me questioning my own beliefs again. I've never considered myself atheist, I've always wanted to believe but it's tough. But this show, no matter what they do, will be controversial to some in it's nature. Adding words seems to be another big one. But so far I think it's been handled well and in good taste.
My biggest concern though is the mix of the two companies doing the show. One charity and the other for-profit. There's a fine line there when they are taking huge donations and also becoming extremely wealthy. I saw one estimate on Dallas's net worth that grew from under 1 million a few years ago, to today estimated at over 40million.
I'm not sure how much and what Mary knew because it seems unless Jesus told her she would have to know more about parts of scripture mentioning what would happen to him then every other Jew at that time in order to know Jesus was going to die and what Simeon meant. I'm curious who named the sheep because it was hard to tell on my phone but they looked like females.
40 generations might have been 5 per year in those days, more like 3 or 4 these days. Thus 2k years old?
Honey lasts a long time.
If Jesus had at least 6 siblings and weaning happened around age 2 Joseph might not have died until Jesus was at least 18 (6 x approx 3 years). If weaning happened more around age 3 then Jesus could’ve been in his 20s
My take away about Jesus not being good at the game was this… First, he could’ve done well had he wanted because He was totally God however He was totally man so this could’ve been highlighting His humanity. Lastly this was something He could’ve used to prove a point.
The Bible tells us He was rejected by His own people. His “friends” were also Jewish folks who believed they had to put Him to death here.
This is fiction. “95% fiction” per Jenkins. It is an addictive inaccurate soap opera. Can you stop watching or are you anxiously waiting for the next fix? Please do not be deceived
But do biodegradable materials and family heirlooms actually degrade if they're in God's family? In our families it happens sure cuz you know we're humans. But in God's family? I think this is a faith question. You either Believe it or you don't.
Do you find the scenes terribly dark, a real strain to see the characters- I understand the attempt at reality, but a distraction in trying to see what’s happening. Even at the end scene the threat to toss him off the hilltop, it is DARK!! Please offer an opinion. Thank you.
Sometimes I can feel this way, I think it depends on the screen I’m watching on as well.
