The reason Eli was hesitant to give up the book even though he had it memorized is because he got so preoccupied with protecting it he struggled to let it go. Kind of explained when he tells the girl he forgot to live by what it taught him.

They would have come after him to get him to read it anyway, better to draw it out and lead them on a wild goose chase and let them go back with a book they can't read.

[@adampolselli597]

First, let me say that I love this movie. I've seen it so many times that I've lost count. But I still fight with myself that he's supposed to be blind. He does too many things that seeing people do: like he looks up and focuses (squints) his eyes when he talks to people. I've interacted with several blind people (I have a cousin who is blind) and they never do that. I've always thought that he taught himself to read braille because the only bible left was in braille.

[@TheFacelessStoryMaker]

Well one major giveaway is he was able to smell the stink of the hijackers early on in the film. When you lose one sense the others are heightened. And a major point of the film is "walk by faith, not by sight". I mean the man with goggles shot Eli in the bag he had and the bullet went in but not out. What was in the bag? The Bible.

[@theren8311]

The other give away is that the movie ends with a close up shot of his discolored eyes and the bad guy seizing over the book being braille. Also, I wouldn't read too much into micro cues, as directors and actors do make mistakes and dont always do extensive research.

[@theren8311]

Another sin to add - why does Eli start reading from Genesis when this "library" already has the Jewish Torah? For those who don't know, Torah is the first 5 books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy). And seeing as how they have the Torah and the Tanach, I wouldn't be surprised if they had the rest of the Old Testament. Christianity and Judaism share the same religious texts within the Old Testament - the only difference between the two religions is that Christianity also has the New Testament, so THAT is what that library would be missing, not the entire Bible.

[@NirShoham]

Just an fyi, Tanach is the 3 parts of the Old Testament - Torah, Neviim and Ctovim (it's actually an acronym of those 3 in Hebrew spelled TN"C - תנ"ך), so if he had a Tanach there then he had the Old Testament

As much as i hear that America's roads have a lot of problems but the reason Eli walks only on the roads is because it is equal footing, imagine trying to walk on unequal flooring not being unable to see whats on there, also roads are straight meaning its easier to roughly know where you're going. Also, also the reason that Eli wants to keep the book regardless that he has memorised it is that it is not only a SYMBOL of his devotion to protect "the word of god" but it is his one possession that brings him comfort in a world of crazy blackness, his ipod can die if he can't charge it but his book will always be there to bring comfort

You can see him start to mouth the words as he reads along, which wouldn't be a significant detail on his own, except for one thing. He keeps his eyes closed. They make a point of slowly zooming in on his face while he's reading so you can clearly see he never opens his eyes, and yet everyone seems to miss it.

Denzels character is using a Heckler and Koch HK45 which at most holds 11 rounds (10 in the mag + 1 in the chamber) if it were the P30 then at most it would hold 16 rounds (15+1). Whilst there are many other handguns that hold more or less the same amount of ammo, movie props for this were of the HK45, the man could have had a reload somewhere in there but I haven't seen the movie in a while.

Up until the big twist at the end, it's actually a pretty good post-apocalyptic action flick. The only real problem is the twist reveal that makes zero sense in the context of the rest of the movie. Like, they could have still kept the braille Bible as a plot point and not have him be blind with only a few lines of dialogue that someone close to him was blind before the apocalypse and he learned to read the braille Bible because of that person. It wouldn't even need a massive exposition dump to explain, just something quick like "My mother went blind from diabetes and she taught me how to read her braille Bible when I was a child."

"Sin of omission." He was instructed by God to stay on the path and protect the book. His problems started when he veered from the path to help Solara and handed over the book to save her life. At the same time it's implied that if he didn't, he may not have had absolution for his sacrifice and disobedience of commands that weren't moral.

[@stevied3400]

curtis m More accurately put, there is no requirement to save someone’s life esp. if attempting to do so puts you in mortal danger. I would argue that it is sinful to try to save someone’s life if you are under-equipped for the dangerous situation and have an opportunity to flee and get help from someone who is equipped to help.

[@SugarRayCharles.]

His problems (saving Solara) was included in his mission. I'm not trying to be religious, (although I believe Jesus is Lord and the only begotten son of God) there is still resistance to God's will from the enemy. (Satan)

[@curtism-w6b]

@@SugarRayCharles. if he hadn't saved Solara, he wouldn't have been punished. He would've made the journey. Then the thinking goes to "How would he have lived with himself knowing he had killed presumably scores of people and watched innocents die after the completion of his task given by God?" If he didn't help her and hand over the book, it's implied that something miraculous would've happened to save him. A mutiny, a crazy distraction to give him the upperhand etc. But notice what Solara does: she tries to keep him on the path knowing it would cost her her life. She begged him not to hand over the book. She was willing to sacrifice herself for God's will, therefore she got the protection of God and was able to escape her captors, return to Eli and she, not Eli, completed the mission by carrying the book (Eli) to Alcatraz. His punishment was death, his reward was absolution and salvation. His soul was weary from watching evil happen. It was stained by it. Completing a task for God and memorizing the Bible doesn't guarantee you'll go to heaven. Following the words of the Bible do. He followed those words by loving Solara, a virtual stranger, enough to risk his life and 30 year mission to save her. Notice his clothes go from tattered and dark to all white and clean as he recites the Bible. He may not have went to heaven without his sacrifice. But he didn't know at the time that what he did was the right thing to do. Sorry, I know this is long.

[@SugarRayCharles.]

@@curtism-w6b Remember when Eli and Solara was at the house of the cannibals. Eli told Solara that the voice he heard said that she will make it out alive, meaning that their circumstance in that instance was foreknown.

Chris Eccles He's using a Heckler & Koch HK45 with it's standard issue magazine, which holds 10 rounds of .45. They do indeed make a 20-round magazine for the gun, but it doubles the length of the grip and would have been obnoxiously obvious. If the film makers wanted him to have a high capacity .45 caliber handgun, they should have had him use an FNX which has a 15 round magazine + 1 in the chamber and it could have worked in this scene, plus it looks at least somewhat similar to the HK 45.

[@Maelstrom8]

That's a logical conclusion. But this movie is about faith. You can choose to believe that, which is cool, but I think you are missing the point the writer was trying to make with the story. The Book of Eli references the Bible he carries. It would also be the name of his story in a modern Bible - like the book of Job etc. This story is a modern addition to the Bible. The telling of how the Bible survived after nuclear war almost destroyed it and religion. If you view it in that light, you can see what the writer and director intended.

6:55 the pistol looks like a Sig p320. the 9mm version of this gun has a 17 round capacity. it is also a pretty common pistol in both civilian and military/police use. so it is very fair to say eli could easily have one, much more likely than all of the bad guys having foreign full auto weapons like FALs and AKs, not to mention the RPG, yes there are small numbers of them legally owned and in circulation, but they are much more rare that the pistol.

[@lijahpinto780]

P320 didn’t exist yet when this movie was made brother. Not to mention the Glock 17, legitimately the most common pistol in the entire world (along with 1911s) carries 17 rounds and it’s literally in the name and he still somehow thought 17 round guns were rare 😅 then end of the same quote where he doesn’t understand automatic vs semi-automatic i was pretty much done with the video. Eli carries an hk 45 which doesn’t hold 17 but still the narrator would have been fine if he just said it was 17 shots and didn’t expose how little he knows about guns
