Dear Friend: this scene suffers from being edited perhaps even heavily edited. It is not what the audience saw when first this film appeared in theaters. The character of Jesus Christ who is portrayed by Max Von Sydow shows a prayer unto the heavens and commands in a manner of speaking "come from the four winds oh breath and breathe upon this man so that he may live" There is also this that was edited out "You wound, and you make alive" who is like thee oh Lord". There is in a manner of speaking a degree of continuity that has been edited out. I would not refer to what we are looking at here as masterful. There is indeed more to suggest however this is a motion picture.
@@Uncle65788I can't believe that after almost 60 years, we still don't have any access to the original, unedited film. It's a travesty what they did to this scene and the crucifixion.
I'm 65, and everytime I watch and listen to this the tears stream involuntarily... never get tired of watching and listening to this wonderful inspiring scene... He is risen!!
Agreed. There is something so special about Jesus ability to transform that which was dead to life. I should know I am an ex fentanyl addict who Jesus saved through his love, power and grace. This is the greatest being known to man(Jesus) this is the greatest movie about Jesus. What Jesus has done will echo in eternity forever, what amazing grace he gives to the worst sinners like me. All I can do is tremble in his mercy.
Greatest story ever told and the greatest movie My mother is passed on over the years she introduced me to this movie as a child it will for ever be a my heart with my mother thank you mom
The divine is endless, was not born will never die. Within us all there is the divine, but we must be still, this mind must be still for it has no place in the divine.

Jesus has healed me many times! I have asked Him now that He would heal my poor brother of 40 years of torment from demon induced schizophrenia. Thank you Lord! You are able and great to do all things and are worthy to receive all praise from all peoples! Cindy
Schizophrenia is not demon induced. It's an imbalanced brain. What will you do, tie him up and play exorcist? Pity... I very much so pity your brother for your misunderstanding of his disease.
Praise Jesus! For anyone who feels down, alone or depressed, please come to Jesus! Read the four Gospels. It's good news! Jesus is God and loves you all so very much! xxx
It never ceases to be so moving and so real. It is portrayed with every bit of emotion it would of had if you were there. It truly is the greatest story ever told.
If I had witnessed something like that I would be screaming to the top of my lungs I wouldn't be able to control myself for joy and of absolute thrill of knowing god almighty, then I would have passed out from Fear of this very same God. What a wonderful God we are so privileged to have and know

@@JohnDoe-nm3lg Your not making the same comparisons. Lazarus was only dead four days remember?? Jesus approached his tomb and said, "Father I know you heard me" So God knew to just hang onto to Lazarus for a while and not to talk him to sleep in the earth as others because Jesus was going to want him to come back. The guys you talk about very well could be here as well and not yet reveled. To many things line up, it has to be him.
Amen. I struggled tonight as I was going to buy cider to drink and I had a battle with myself on the sidewalk as I wanted to go buy the booze but the holy spirit told me to walk the other way home, it was such a struggle but now I feel cleaner and better since listening to the holy spirit. I am an ex fentanyl addict so I have to be careful with my sin and with booze lest I go back to the needle. I almost died many times when I was in the city but I have been sober now for about 11 months. Jesus is all the credit. Sometimes I get sad at how I sinned so much but the bible says if we repent as far as east is from west thats how far god forgets are sins. I cant believe how good and loving God is. I was in chains and now I am free.
This is anointed of by The Holy Spirit!!!!!!! When the annoited music plays its like angels singing praises to God and I'm in the throne room!!!!!!! Praise God forever and ever, He is good!!!!!!!
This is one of my all time favorite Biblical epics. It's hated by many critics, but I personally think it's a masterpiece. It's one of the relatively few Bible movies that actually sticks close to The Bible, which is partly the reason why I love it so much. In about 10 or 11 years, I have seen it 7-8 times. Fun story that I want to share: I must have been 11 (so this is circa 2009) when I first saw it. I went to a flea market with my Mom and one guy had a whole section of VHS tapes. The Greatest Story Ever Told was one of them. I love old movies and the title intrigued me, as did the run-time of over 3 hours. And it was Rated G, and as a sheltered child, I could only see certain kid movies and I was only allowed to see a handful of PG-13 movies. My Mom let me buy it, and as I was paying for it, the man was telling me how good of a movie it was and a man next to him made a comment about John Wayne's line. (Something like "John Wayne is in it and he only has one line- Truly this man is the Son of God.") I somehow missed what the plot was from that. So my Mom and I went to the car, and she was putting my sister in the car (she had disabilities), and I read the plot on the back and went: "MOM! I read the back of the cover and guess what? This is a movie about Jesus!" This impressed her as well. :) I could say so much more about this movie, but in short I just absolutely adore it. What a beautiful movie about the Gospel! :)
This film was unfairly maligned. (Never mind John Wayne!). True, it was stately and often moved at a snail’s pace, but there were scenes of great power and beauty. The raising of Lazarus combined with the music and the expressions on peoples’ faces is awesome. And nothing in the scenic values made it look like a typical Hollywood biblical romp
A great moment in a great film. The nexus of Christian's faith runs like a coursing river through the story of the Resurrection of Lazarus. "Lazarus, Come Forth!" and moments later, dressed in the raiments of the grave a grey-shrouded form is seen, briefly, making its way toward the exit of the crypt. Jesus triumphs over death through His faith as He petitions His Father, our Father, Almighty God, to mitigate nature in bringing Lazarus back to his family.
Yes he defeated death for all of us all we hsve to do is believe and tske hold of his promise somedsy soon he will put an end to sicknesd and death thank u Jesud
5:09 I find this sequence fascinating, and I like the way George Stevens handled it. To show the raising of Lazarus of the dead through the reactions of the people witnessing it, combined with the haunting music, make for a VERY powerful scene. Though I am a Christian, to witness a miracle of this nature would be extremely profound, and beyond what the human mind and heart can completely grasp. If I saw it happen, it would frighten the wits out of me. Anyone feel the same way?
It's too bad that clueless editors didn't realise what Stevens was doing and eviscerated this scene. In the original version it's a long, slow buildup of Lazarus coming down the hill with the reactions of everyone, whereas here, you can see he just sort of appears. I hope we can see the original version one day.
Commanding and moving performance by Max von sydow. Also a great supporting cast.Hope they show some of these films at easter. Now that would be a miracle !
The music is so wonderful, too. The initial swell gives a sense of terror, and awe. You feel as if the entire world has just been changed, the fear of the unknown. Is he the devil? Is he evil? Then it is Lazarus. Alive in body and spirit. The music at once shifts to a sense of triumph, surging like water breaking a dam. It shatters the grip of fear and buoys your heart up to the heights of joy. Wonderful music.
This scene has always given me chills. Truly a masterful work of art. And it's bittersweet to watch this first Easter since Max von Sydow passed. Actors of his caliber are few and far between.
I have not seen this since I was a young boy. I broke out into tears and wept uncontrollably and not sure why except for a really strong love of Christ in the moment and conviction that He is everything. "My Lord and my God!"
Cinematography is beautiful. Captures perhaps the most pivotal moment in Jesus's ministry. Raising a man from the dead. Which of course renders his own resurrection moot. That's because Jesus did not raise from the dead. He didn't have to.
Absolute best version. The others are nervous, unfocused, and baldly melodramatic, with lots of running around ala "The Life of Brian". The arc of Stevens' first act ends here, book ended by the resurrection and ascension which closes the film's second and final act. I just realized why it's structured this way. Jesus' followers are looking for a sign of his divinity, and this is Stevens' proof, though David Mc Callum's Judas Iscariot doesn't believe it. -- Michael McDonagh on George Stevens

Interesting how this scene is less concerned with the act (which is seen from a great distance) than with the subsequent reaction of the crowd. Van Heflin and Sal Mineo rushing excitedly to tell everyone what they saw really propels the moment forward.
Faith though we may not see we have faith in Jesus he performs miracles daily around the world. Praise be to Jesus. I had a near fatal accident. I live i called out for Jesus. Testimony for the Everlasting King Jesus Christ!
4:17 My God I cry every time.. Their doubt in Him but His love for us!! He teared up maybe because He knew this was the miracle that would lead to His death to prove to them because they lacked faith..😩💔!! Idk but my God!!And again the fact the camera never panned in but based it off everyone else's reactions when Lazarus was raised instead, the music is everything!! This is perfect!! 💔🙏🏾🙌🏽😭
Praise God from whom all Blessings Flow, Praise Him all creatures here below, praise Him above thee Heavenly host, PRAISE FATHER SON AND HOLY GHOST.......Amen.
A very powerful example of our human nature. It demonstrates how weak we truly are in ourselves and our understanding of God. It is easy to trust God when all things are working well, but when God delays what He says He will do we lose faith in Him. We do not know why He works the way He works, but if we will trust Him, according to what He says He will do, then we know we can rely on Him. The promises found in the Bible are based on the Nature of God's character. He is our rock, our fortress, our help when we need Him. But we must totally trust Him even when it seems He is no where to be found.
the conviction, I would have followed Jesus to his death as best I could because I would have seen a dead man raised to life and know that he is God who can do anything. Blessed were those who witnessed Lazarus brought back to life. No scientist today or throughout history would be able to disprove or deny he is God.
Please pray that I Am immediately AND automatically and permanently bless with a glorious body THANK YOU. May the good God bless you all for all your Loving PRAYERS amen.
The LORD thy God is all miracles, May God bless you all. Who is better than God, no one. May we bless our LORD Jesus Christ, our LORD and saviour to all of us AMEN.

From a child until a full-grown adult, this scene brings joyful tears to my eyes. Simply an incredible story.
I have no words.

He's not resting--he's serving.
To see a movie of Christ anytime you want to is such a joy! Unheard of in the 60's and 70's. I really love that we can do this now.

I agree, he made this beautiful film. I was shocked at the powerful emotion it raised inside me.

Commanding and moving performance by Max von sydow. Also a great supporting cast.Hope they show some of these films at easter. Now that would be a miracle !
My body is tingling, Jesus I love and adore you
Behold Jesus and Lazarus standing together outside that tomb. Their bodies luminous and angelic voices rejoicing. My mind is blown.
Best Lazarus scene ever filmed. The frozen shock on the people's faces was captured perfectly.
One of the best scenes ever.
The music is so wonderful, too. The initial swell gives a sense of terror, and awe. You feel as if the entire world has just been changed, the fear of the unknown. Is he the devil? Is he evil?
Then it is Lazarus. Alive in body and spirit. The music at once shifts to a sense of triumph, surging like water breaking a dam. It shatters the grip of fear and buoys your heart up to the heights of joy.
Wonderful music.
glory to our risen saviour his father and the holy spirit

Beautiful movie from start to finish!! One of my favorite classic movies!! Beautifully moving. ✝️❤️
I love this, I can watch thousands of time and I still cry.
Faith though we may not see we have faith in Jesus he performs miracles daily around the world. Praise be to Jesus. I had a near fatal accident. I live i called out for Jesus. Testimony for the Everlasting King Jesus Christ!
beautiful scene- right before intermission- and no close-up on Jesus and Lazarus- all in wide shot....epic and glorious film.
The shots are beautiful.....
This movie reminded me of what it was like in those days.
4:17 My God I cry every time.. Their doubt in Him but His love for us!! He teared up maybe because He knew this was the miracle that would lead to His death to prove to them because they lacked faith..😩💔!! Idk but my God!!And again the fact the camera never panned in but based it off everyone else's reactions when Lazarus was raised instead, the music is everything!! This is perfect!! 💔🙏🏾🙌🏽😭
Words don't do this scene Justice, it is Wonderful, " a Man was dead and now he Lives, I was a cripple, but now I walk. I was blind and now I see"
Praise God from whom all Blessings Flow, Praise Him all creatures here below, praise Him above thee Heavenly host, PRAISE FATHER SON AND HOLY GHOST.......Amen.
This is one of the greatest scenes in the history of motion pictures, absolutely timeless
Lord bless you give me strength and courage to overcome grace also praises to thee
A very powerful example of our human nature. It demonstrates how weak we truly are in ourselves and our understanding of God. It is easy to trust God when all things are working well, but when God delays what He says He will do we lose faith in Him. We do not know why He works the way He works, but if we will trust Him, according to what He says He will do, then we know we can rely on Him. The promises found in the Bible are based on the Nature of God's character. He is our rock, our fortress, our help when we need Him. But we must totally trust Him even when it seems He is no where to be found.
Brilliant. Thank you.
Amen! I cry every time I see this movie!
🙏🏾🙏🏾😊😊😇😇🕊🕊STAY SAFE EVERYBODY GOD BLESS🙏🏾🙏🏾😊😊😇😇🕊🕊JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU🙏🏾🙏🏾😊😊😇😇🕊🕊🕊
This scene always gives me goosebumps
Best scene in movie history.
Handel’s music fits this scene very well
Can you imagine being there?
Robbie Underwood if you live. Long enough you will see him speaking this as a Muslim.
Abdul Shafi G Mohammad was a false prophet of Satan. He was also a pedophile. Not someone to look up to
the conviction, I would have followed Jesus to his death as best I could because I would have seen a dead man raised to life and know that he is God who can do anything. Blessed were those who witnessed Lazarus brought back to life. No scientist today or throughout history would be able to disprove or deny he is God.
Please pray that I Am immediately AND automatically and permanently bless with a glorious body THANK YOU. May the good God bless you all for all your Loving PRAYERS amen.
Lazarus ,come forth.....
Let there be light......
Same voice same God....
The power & love of Jesus!!
Go forth and proclaim that our Lord has come.
The LORD thy God is all miracles, May God bless you all. Who is better than God, no one. May we bless our LORD Jesus Christ, our LORD and saviour to all of us AMEN.
Hope.. True God free us all from the invisible devil, and all his things in this world
The look on Van Heflin's face says it all!🙂
i was dead in the flesh but now am alive by the holy spirit of God and i will live forever more with the Lord my God JESUSCRIST of Nazareth. love you with all my heart
What a great scene!
Lord Jesus Christ has set me free for all eternity. I will love, adore, honor, and praise Him forever and ever amen.
The resurrection is real if we allow the holy spirit to work!
It's either real, or it isn't. And it ISN'T
