Every time i watch him hug someone, i wonder what it must have been like to know you are being embraced by the Messiah.
I've thought the same!
I have wondered the same and was talking about that with one of my dearest friends yesterday. Can you just imagine? 🥹❤️🔥
I think the same thing and like when the blind see and the deaf hear and it’s the Messiah being the first person.
We’ll find out what it feels like SOON ❤️
You'll find out when you get there.
Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart ❤️
Could you imagine being blind for 10 years plus and the first sight you see after being healed is Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior! That would be the greatest site ever.
You didn't show it, but I LOVED Simon Z's conversation with his former zealot comrades. In the opening scene, we see him sharpening a new dagger, in anticipation of that confrontation. But when that time comes, instead of a badass "Jesus Warrior" fight scene, he meekly drops to his knees and begins praying, trusting that his humble submission to Jesus' teachings will change their hearts.
He couldn't know if it would work, but it didn't matter; he had faith, and he acted on it.
I agree -- that was what I was really looking forward to hearing, if not discussed, at least commented on. It was so remarkable. And his genuine pain when they didn't recognize the Messiah.
I love the part where he reveals that there's no dagger under his cloak. So powerful
@bigvatodre You do realize that none of this is real, right? That God is going to burn alive everyone responsible for it for eternity, right?
@@we.are.all.barabbas powerful lie accursed by God. Do all of you want the wrath of eternal hell fire like everyone involved in this abominable work will receive? Is that it?
@@we.are.all.barabbas So you love lies. Check
The joy he has for his friend getting healed has me in tears. He isn’t even worried about himself.
You two are wonderful, keep up the good work and word's. Gob blessing on you both :-)
Imagine the first face you see after years and years of blindness is the face of the Son of God, Jesus Christ himself😭❤️
I loved watching it. I'm a stranger to Jewish culture and those little details you observe and share helps and gives more understanding. Thank you.
Applause for Sam with his “Abba joke” line. (You actually explained that awkward moment in this episode that left me wondering!) You two almost fit together like a comedy duo, now that I think about it. Thanks for your insights on the show. And thanks to your behind-the-scene support team! 💜
The scene between Tamar and Zeb happened right after Mary had said that she thought she was being rude to Zeb. My take was she didn't criticize the joke or answer him because she did not want to appear to be rude to him. She was trying to take Mary's advice.
Don't encourage him!!! 😂
Yes, many of us saw that Gaius probably was the Centurion with the sick servant before we knew he had a sick son/servant at home. There was plenty of spiritual and intellectual curiosity in the depiction of his character.
Your reaction videos are the absolute best! They are for so many reasons, not the least of which is the special friendship you two share. Your desire to communicate the beauty of the life in Yeshua. Indeed, ministry can be fun. The friendship between Barnaby and Shula made their healing moments shine.
I'm literally feeling ANXIOUS for waiting on ur reaction to EP 8! Pleaseeeeeee!!!!
Dr. Tom and Sam, I appreciate these reaction videos SO much. I am taking the BMW class and how this all fits in (especially your discussion of the new wine skins) is so beautiful. As someone from "the nations" I am so grateful for my Yeshua, King of the JEWS. I long to see Him unify the family through our demonstrated love: Love God/Love Others.
During a bad bronchitis I am blessed to have disvovered you guys yesterday. Since then I have watched loads of your beautiful insights. As a Pastor (and Theologian) I am often so blown away by the richness and artistry of all the connections of the Old and New Testamend and Covenant. Thank You for deepening it even more and making clear so many small and huge things I already love and cherish. Thank you for your depth and width. It is a pleasure watching you and your love for the Word (The Book AND Him) ;) Love and blessings! Can't wait for you to continue!
Horse redfish and mustard will cure that for you. It will kill the bacteria in your body. May not sound very appetizing but it's a good remedy
When Chosen Jesus expresses such joy when miracles manifest and make people so happy, I wonder if our Lord watching from heaven does the same as signs and miracles manifest now on earth. I’m imagining the church being that conduit and Jesus smiling in heaven
You guys are awesome...I learn so much from you.
I like Sam said: "there is nothing better than a transformed life" BIG AMEN to that!!!
Tom: "Life in the Lord is fun!"
BIG 2 AMEN TO THAT!
I love this show of yours, guys, brothers in Yeshua! Thank you!!
I love when y'all explain scripture since I'm still new at this. Thank you! And pointing out things I missed. I appreciate y'all so much.
I always look forward to your Chosen Reaction videos...I wouldn't mind if you reacted to the whole episode and not just highlights!
I very much enjoy your show on the Chosen Serious. I look forward to your upcoming video on Season 3 episodes 7 & 8. Thank you for your insight.
Have you seen the finale yet? I’m anxious to see your reactions!😊. Love watching you both talking each episode through. Excited!❤
In Romans 16 and the third letter of John someone named Gaius is is addressed. I am wondering if they are setting this Roman character as a future follower. I know I am probably reaching, but hopeful maybe they will go on to illustrate the early church. I love your commentary, I am a member of a Southern Baptist Church that is also affiliated with UMJC seeking to unify Jewish and Gentile followers of Yeshua. Thank you for all you do!!! Love it!
Are you doing the finale anytime soon. I keep coming back to see episode 7 and 8. I cannot wait for your reaction to those.
Beautiful brothers keep processing out loud. Those who have ears to hear are listening and learning. Thank you for your gentle approach! God bless you both!❤🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
29:11 "The devil's in the expectations." It was as true then as it is now in our present day theology. Jesus, prepare Your bride.
“Life in God is fun.” Dr. Tom
I have been watching for a few months and really enjoy your input, observations and explanations. Given with knowledge but also the humor you share really keep it fun. Thank you
so happy for the healing of Shula and Barnaby 🥰
Okay guys. It's time for new input and your reactions! I am missing you!!! Hope everyone/all is well. Shalom, Shalom!🙃😊
I wonder if John the Baptist sent his disciples to ask Jesus the question because THEY were anxious about the identity of the Messiah. So John says to his disciples "Go and ask Him yourselves" ... so that THEY will be convinced. Possibly?
I love you guys! Can't wait for your take on the last 2 series! It was soooo good🙌🏼❤
E8! OMGoodness ! Can't wait to see it on Grafted with Sam & Dr. Tom. 👌🙏🏾🙏🏾
Sam you always make me laugh. Thank you.
"Fun" I'm reminded that the God of the Universe DELIGHTS in HIS children!!!! Can you imagine the joy Jesus would have experienced when healing His children suffering within this broken, sin-sick world?!?! He loves us so much more than we will ever realize.
Sin-sick world indeed. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
BO Yeshua BO !!! I can't wait for Your return to us. 🙏🏼😂😂
You were correct about Gaius. Probably about Atticus too. Cannot wait til Tuesday 7p EST.
Thank you for your analysis on this episode.
I have heard a nice explanation of the answer Jesus gave to Johns disciples (by a catholic friar from the congregation of st. Dominic here in Poland): Jesus listed all the wonders from the profecy except "liberty to the captives" to indicate that John will not leave prison. Jesus needed John to stay there and to die first (before Jesus dies) to pave the way for Messiah in the depth of Sheol as well.
Your hermeneutics/exegesis of this episode so enlightening as well as your partnership in your presentation, playful but also poignant when necessary. Of course, part of this comes from the humanity of the characters presented by Dallas and the crew at The Chosen. There's so much to "know" about Scripture and your help in tying it all together is as blessing. Shalom!
I love you guys so much. It's nice to not be the only one crying at all the same scenes. Lol.
Just want you guys to know, I enjoy your great humor AND you have some great historical confirmation to share. Thank you
I look forward to these videos so much! I can't wait to see y'all's reactions to episodes 7 and 8, especially 8. I saw them in theaters and OH MY WORD!!!! 🤯
Ok, it’s just always been totally fun to me that Jesus is a massive nick-namer. I love that you came up with “Always-Eating-Atticus”😂😂
It’s one of the cutest details of the series that he has the munchies.❤
Atticus “Eatibus Everythingus”
I really enjoy your shows. I wonder if you could say something about what the Messianic discipline is ??
Enjoy listening thank u God bless ❤️
Mr Producer guy!!! They totally speed skated through that Ep. There was so much in it I would have liked them to discuss 😢
Still waiting on the season finales!! its must me about to be GOOOOOD. I will continue to come back to look for it.
I enjoyed your chat on S3E6, gentlemen.
I have learned so much from you both and I want to say thank you!! I watch everyone of your videos. I am presently reading Your People Shall Be My People by Don Finto and am so amazed at what I am learning! Thank you so much for all you do. I am so grateful for your knowledge. I have started sending a small only donation, I don't have much much but I pray that you will continue to create your videos 🙏🤍🕊️
I caught the Centurion/sick servant vibe episodes ago!! Can't wait to see the healing!!
I was so caught off guard by the Sméagol joke at the end that I started laughing really hard. Well played, you guys. 😂
I often re-watch your episodes just to watch your faces as you watch. Priceless. Thank you so much for your insights.
No! Guys, Leander was trying to get into Andrew's house without alerting everyone, tried knocking on the door. When that didn't work, he used a knife to open a latch on the window...lost his footing and fell on the floor. That's why Andrew tells him to knock louder next time. 😁🤣😜
I loved this episode! Of course I love them all! It just seems now things are really moving forward. And you 2 guys are precious in your explanations of everything! Your friendship, your scholarship, your devotion to helping all of us learn more about the real Yeshua, is "fun" to watch and listen to!👵😇 Thank you both so very much!
You missed the conversation with Pilate. Atticus says Quintas wants to be remembered. Pilate says he doesn’t. But that didn’t work out too well for him
I have always felt that since his wife had been receiving visions about Jesus, and had most likely been receiving visions while she was with Pilate, he tended to take them seriously. He also may have believed in them, because had he not, she would have stopped sharing them with him in the way she did, by saying she had a vision, and not by saying that she thought this or that about situations they faced.
Therefore, I believe Pilot paid attention to what was going on in the area he was in charge of during the Passover Season.
After speaking with Jesus, I think he was actually believing that this 'man' he was speaking with and listening to, was indeed 'special'.
I also believe that between what his wife had said, hearing what was going on in the Community, and how he felt, with 'what' he was 'feeling', he may even began to understand certain things.
We must remember that Pilate was aware of Jewish Traditions, as he was sent by Herod due to his ability to understand what happens during this time when thousands of people came for the Passover Celebrations from allover the entire area in order to be at The Temple as per their belief and practices taught for hundreds of years.
I think that a few things that Pilate said and did, considering his penchant for having had his military destroy groups of peoples that he simply 'felt' like doing. He was a murderous Governor who enjoyed and even overstepped his duties as Governor.
Since he even deigned to listen to Jesus out of curiosity shows his curiosity overshadowed his 'natural' behaviour, and he even felt he wanted no part in the judgement of this "man" in front of him.
Why Herod sent Jesus back to Herod and making Pilate make the final decision was also due to his own feelings about Pilate simply not doing what he was supposed to. ie: Keeping the peace between the Parisees and Romans, especially during Passover. (Remember, much money was given to The Pharisees for 'order' amongst Jews)
When trying to trade Barabas in Jesus place, and the Jews calling for Barabas' release and Pilate washed his hands of this, he was certainly making a statement considering he never seemed to have had problems ordering executions before this.
I also believe that Pilates having the engraving was not a sarcastic 'accusation', but perhaps his own way of proclamation due to his part in the pain Jesus suffered at his hand by his order of the 40 lashes, as I believe he called for that, thinking that should be sufficient in appeasing The Pharisees, or at the very least, telling them that he was boss still, and had no intention of killing this Jesus who in his mind had no fault in him.
The 'proclamation' on the carved sign, saying in differing languages that Jesus was King of The Jews, was to be a reminder to 'all' who had 'obeyed' (had 'heard) The Law that they followed by their belief in their GOD.
That by turning Jesus over to him, to be killed for blasphemy, because part of 'The Law' was, "Thou shalt not kill", did NOT clear them of murder, and that 'they' should remember what was done by them.
After ruminating, and looking at the History of Pilate (who btw had his position taken away at the same time Caiaphas (sp.), the Head of The Pharisees who demanded Jesus' death from Pilate), I have thought that Pilate had remembered his wife's vision not to take part in this, and why... And tried, Then perhaps gave a 'Testimony', and shoved it in the faces of the Jews who he felt were responsible.
Just a thought.
The Joy of the Lord is our strength!
I wasn't notified unfortunately when the live stream started. So I'm going to sit down with my mum and watch it back. Really looking forward to it.
Hope the course is going well. Would love to attend your course, maybe courses in the future, at some point. Love what you do and the insight as well as the fun and laughter you share with us too. Thank you. Shalom. ❤️😊🙏🏻
I would like to add that a man who ate locusts, probably also was living in a jail without much food. That can lead to hallucinations, and other things he may not say if he wasn't incarcerated. Being alone isn't how God created people to be, and John was feeling lonely.
Definitely Atticus at the cross with recognition of Jesus.. He's shown deep interest regarding Jesus, who is he? think were his words. Whether talking to Gaius, Simon Z, or Quintus, revealing his . He's heard the Sermon on the Mount, seen a possessed man be healed by Jesus, a zealot give up his prized Zealot dagger, etc. Your commentary seemed to suggest Atticus didn't have understanding of the Sermon on the Mount, when he and Gaius we're asked by Quintus regarding the sermon content. My thought was Atticus chose not to report any of the content purposely. Not that he understood everything but he is following this man and group, partly because of orders but more likely he wants to know more about Jesus. When I rewatched those scenes with the above three characters, very revealing. He also commented with Pilate that his position also could be a "demotion" type of assignment. Think he is searching for more beyond his Roman elite position.
Yeah I was thinking gius too, but maybe not, Atticus still seems too cocky.. but maybe that will change over the next few seasons 🤷♀️
He definitely lied about not understanding the sermon on the mount. So did gaius.
Thanks for your wonderful reaction!!
I have been WAITING for this, I am so excited to see your take on this episode!
I’ve watched episode seven and eight twice already. In the theater. And just tonight episode seven on the app!
It will be interesting to hear what you have to say about episodes 7-8.
Lots of Jewish stuff in both of those which I bet you enjoy and you have a lot to say about! They were incredible and for me episode 8 blew me away!
Same!!
Why does Nathan care if SImon is sharpening a dagger or a kitchen knife? They both will do the same thing. A pencil is just a pencil until it's exhibit "A". Is it because that the "dagger" is specifically a weapon? Because a dagger can also be used as a kitchen knife.
I think the teaching is if you put new wine into Old wineskins the wineskins burst and you lose both the wine and the wineskin. If you put new wine into new wineskins and both are preserved it means you keep both the wine and the wineskin. I don't think it means you keep both wineskins. I don't know. That's what I was taught.
40:29. “Life in God is Fun”. AMEN AND AMEN.
You guys are awesome. I’ve loved following along. I originally was taking the Chosen with a grain of salt to make sure it stays faithful to the Scriptures, and while any show or film is gonna go sideways with some things, I have sooo appreciated your insight into the Jewish heritage of Jesus. I’ve been able to teach more of this to my young children. Thank you for these videos!
The writing is doing such a fantastic job with the “tension of expectation” regarding the Messiah, what they expected vs what they received and their responses.
I started thinking last night, that Judas probably didn’t start out as a betrayer, he was a faithful follower, but his expectation lead him to betray Jesus.
After ep 7, it is quite clear Gaius is the Roman in Scripture,
And I think Atticus will be at the cross, but I am wondering if he will be there as a follower, he has been following Jesus for awhile, always in the distance. Watching.
Waiting patiently for ur reactions to 7 and 8
Dr. Tom, has anyone dubbed you “Captain Tiny Cup” yet?😄 You guys are the best!
I'm curious about your small coffee cup. What is in it, and what is the significance? It's really unique looking. By the way, I love watching your commentary & historical facts you present. It helps me understand The Chosen more in depth.
Dr Tom explained the small coffee cup in their earlier videos, go check it out! Shalom shalom🙏
Here's another possible character now that we know Tamar has a brother: could he be the Ethiopian walking while reading one of the prophets scrolls who Jesus meets after the Resurrection?
That's Phillip who meets an Ethiopian
Thank you for your insights and reactions! So enjoy watching with you!!❤😊
Mathew 9:17 - Thank you for that insight. Praying your class is a blessing to all, just as Grafted has been to me! Hoping to join if offered another time. Also, this is good to watch even after watching Ep. 7. :)
Absolutely love Abba jokes!
Thank you guys for your insight. It is so true that the Joy of the Lord is our strength.
Love from Hawaii 🤗🕊️🔥🌈❤️ Thank you so much for your breakdown and humor in these episodes. 🌹🇮🇱🇺🇸
I swear, I’ve NEVER seen the same small coffee cup that Tom drinks out of. They are always different. How many cups does this man have??😅
He has a few sent to him by some of the Grafted followers, he mentioned it at one of their earlier livestream shalom!🙏
Love your channel.
If Atticus does turn out to be the "surely this Man...." Roman at the crucifixion, that'll be a change from other versions. In Zefferelli's both that role and the soldier with the sick servant were combined in one. (Ernst Borgnine.) So Gaius and Atticus were one. But heck, I've lost the ability to predict or guess anything now. With Shmuel apparently turning into a proto-Christian in the last episode, anything is possible.
I thought Longinus was the name of the Roman soldier who said, “Surely this is the Son of God.”
I'm sorry 😭😭😭😭😭
I can't help but love Pilate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His style and personality is so charming~
I enjoyed this but why did you leave the part out that showed Simon finding out Eden had lost their baby? That scene kinda of sets up episodes 7 &8. I also enjoyed Simon Z's conversation with his other zealots so we know they are not still going to be after him.
So, does anyone else think Barnaby might to turn out to be Barnabas in Acts?
Hi guys!!! Did you see the last two episodes already?
Not yet. All of our Season 3 reactions were recorded while we viewed it for the first time to get an authentic reaction.
Yes, I was thinking that Atticus would be the one to say that at the foot of the cross
I love that clarification of that verse. I had never picked up on it either. It is the embodiment of the fact that he invites all to the table. He wanted the Jewish community to accept him in his Jewishness and he wanted the gentile communities for their newer ways of looking at his teachings. He wants to preserve the covenant and bring about the new kingdom. Thanks for giving me new insight
Abba jokes…😂 shalom shalom Mishpacha ❤️YAH all
I love when Zee kneels.
Zee's ex friends até listening.
So that’s what their pajamas look like😂
Such love for a friend...
Absolutely incredible and can't wait to watch next episode. Do you mind letting me know why did you give the name Veronica to the lady who bleed for 12 years.She never had a name in the bible. Peace and love xx
Church history, it seems
I seems clear that Gaius has a history and future in this story. He is the father of the slave's kid, his son's friend. Question is how did she die? Atticus makes a comment to Gaius about murder (from the knower of all things). Probably Giaus has something to do with the boy losing his mother (blackmail). and, eventually Jesus will heal his son, which ever one is sick.
John was in prison for a reason, he got himself there. I wonder if he would have hindered Jesus' ministry. 🤔
This is so weird I thought I saw this one already.....
I seriously thought I was losing my senses for a moment too then I read the comment to your statement. So...whew!!! Lol
@@nilarene2088 thank God I'm not alone. Lol as believers we're never alone anyway but you know what I mean right?!
...to preserve both wineskins.... wow ❤️
Matthew and Luke use the word centurion at the cross. Does this title encompass Atticus’s position in the Roman hierarchy? I agree that Gaius is softening but he is listening to the message but not necessarily fully understanding what he is witnessing. Even the disciples don’t fully understand. I believe the centurion at the cross is Gaius. Long shot Quintus.
Thank you for pointing out the full context of the new wineskins...taken to its furthest conclusion--if you think that you are to throw out the old wineskins, it can lead to holocaust--so, it is a very important distinction that both old and new must be preserved...dts/usa
Do you think the GOOD LORD gives us good folks a welcoming hug when we reach heaven?? I hope;
*whispered* "I think we're gonna see Smeagol!"
That made me laugh for real lol!
I love you guys! So many wonderful/helpful comments the whole way through. You both carry a joyfulness about you which is so refreshing. You said doing ministry is so fun and you guys embody that.
Best line: zealots were magicians also :-D :-D
Agreed Andrew is the best.
