Is "Jesus of Nazareth" Biblical? - Movie Review

[@JB-ur3dw]

I would disagree about the acting of Robert Powell. Sure he doesn’t smile much, but he did bring alot of emphasis and confidence in his line deliveries which makes him believable as someone who has authority. Now his style might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but in the end I still think it works in its own way.

[@CatholicWisdom]

Yeah, same here. More to the point, the film was intended by Zeffirelli as a series of “paintings in cinema”, inspired by renaissance paintings. Jesus in renaissance paintings was definitely not very expressive, but more of an abstract visualization of Him.

[@estaextrana8486]

yeah. Personaly I like the way he stares at people, epecialy at the camera. It feels like he looks right into you'r soul. I know it's not accurate but his blue eyes are very, very beautiful.

[@scifijunky1979]

My perception of Robert Powell’s performance was perfect. Those blank stares you mentioned, when I saw that, I perceived it as if he speaks from personal experience of his divine home in heaven guided with the Holy Spirit. I know when I tell an anecdotal recollection, I look blankly into space as I’m recounting my experience. Now there some Catholic priests on KZbin that decided to rate all the actors who played Jesus, and their review on Robert Powell was he played Jesus as too divine, which to them was unrelatable. I have to disagree because according to the Gospel of John states that according to scripture, his communication style would include the use of parables, metaphors, and smilies. A unique method to help people understand the truth which is universally relatable.

Christianity began as sun worship, the stories about Jesus are symbolic. He is just a personification of the sun, made into a god figure later on. The sun "dies" for 3 days on December 22nd, the winter solstice, when it stops its movement south, to be born again or resurrected on December 25th, when it resumes its movement north. In some areas, the calendar originally began in the constellation of Virgo, and the sun would therefore be "born of a Virgin" The sun rising in the morning is "the saviour of mankind" The sun is "The light of the World" The sun "walks on water" is just the reflection of the sun on water/the sea. "He cometh on clouds, and every eye shall see him", is just sun rays. Jesus' "crown of thorns" is just the sun's glare, also know as a halo. The sun's "followers", "helpers" or "disciples" are the 12 months and the 12 signs of the zodiac or constellations, through which the sun must pass. The sun at 12 noon is in the house or temple of the "Most High": thus.."he" begins "his Father's work" at "age" 12. The sun enters into each sign of the zodiac at 30 degrees, hense, the "Sun of God" begins his ministry at "age" 30. The sun is hung on a cross or "crucified", which represents its passing through the equinoxes. The vernal equinox being Easter, at which time it is then resurrected. The reason why saviour myths are so similar with a godman who is crucified and resurrected, who does miracles and has 12 disciples, is that these stories were based on the movements of the sun through the heavens, an astrotheological development that can be found throughout the planet, because the sun and the 12 zodiac signs can be observed around the globe. In other words, Jesus Christ and all the others upon whom this character is predicated are personifications of the sun, and the Gospel fable is merely a rehash of a mythological formula revolving around the movements of the sun throug the heavens.

I loved this movie and even purchased it. I think Robert Powell was the perfect choice to portray Jesus. He's exactly how I imagine Jesus would look and speak. The errors you mention are minor. I do agree about how John the Baptist performed the baptisms. They should have been by submersion. I especially like the scene with the Centurion played by Ernest Borgnine.

[@zacharysiple629]

Jesus of Nazareth is one of my favorite Biblical movies. I've seen it about 5 times. I never noticed that it had so many inaccuracies, but it's far better than a good chunk of Bible movies. By the way, my first viewing was because I borrowed it from a church friend who had it on VHS. I watched it in parts and got it done in a month. :)

[@curtthegamer934]

20:03 They probably left out the ear cutting because it was too difficult to pull off that kind of thing convincingly in the '70s. The Jesus Film of 1978 includes it, and, from what I've read, it was pretty difficult to get it to appear correctly and took many takes.

[@Nopemccloud92984]

2 Kings 6:17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.not to say I disagree that this was a liberty taken. This is one example of one seeing and another not able to see what God was doing.

[@curtthegamer934]

15:28 This scene wasn't actually an adaptation of the anointing from Matthew 26, Mark 14, and John 12. It was an adaptation of the anointing from Luke 7, which is generally accepted as being a different event.

There was no Slap of No Return. ENH! Go Fish wasn't a game back then. ENH!) Also: Pasolini's The Gospel According To St. Matthew, The Gospel Road, The Visual Bible: Matthew/Acts/The Gospel of John, The King of Kings (1927), King of Kings (1961), and The Greatest Story Ever Told would be other good Jesus movies.

I find it interesting that in part one, they left out every part that says "Jesus is the son of God". From mary speaking to the angel, to jesus being baptised ("this is my son, in whom i am well pleased") Not surprising, coming from Hollywood, but it is surprising that no one seems to notice.

How can you interpret the apocalyptic literary style of Revelation as “when Jesus will come back, there will ACTUALLY be bloodshed and violent judgement” ?

Let’s be realistic. Nobody knows what the physical appearance of our Savior actually looked like. But I think Yeshua definitely stood out amongst His peers. I mean, how could you not? Your chromosomes are literally mixed with Yahweh. I actually like the direction Franco Zeffirelli took using the long hair and sky blue eyes. Because in his adaptation he used an actor whose appearance and teachings would captivate a revolutionary following against manmade law.

Exactly every point you made is so clear the lord actually had me go and while half way through I noticed that something wasn’t right that I need to look up this movie and see if anyone else noticed something off? It’s very confusing and for a newer Christian they might not really understand how this can mislead them so thank you for the clarification and praise God that I can discern things from the TRUTH the only living word of God our Bible! ❤ Im going to read my Bible tonight! It is critical to read it EVERYDAY especially when your someone like me who wanted to just watch a film 🎥 that is fine and all but again you really need to always pray and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance because it is so easy in these times without any prayer to really stay focused and continue building your relationship and learning about our one and only true God! ❤

[@riverart7730]

Besides this miniseries and the film Son of God, there’s also two movies about Jesus released in the 1960’s. One of them is King of Kings and the other is The Greatest Story Ever Told. King of Kings was more action driven, focused mainly on the Roman Oppression and the conflict between the Romans and Zealots. The world around Jesus, Jesus’ story was more of a side plot. Greatest Story Ever Told was more spiritual, focused heavily on Jesus’ ministry and teachings.

[@TheDivineCallingofJesusChrist]

This series is miles ahead of The Chosen. The Actor that plays Jesus in The Chosen is a Roman Catholic and professing Knight's Templar. Is that someone you want portraying the role of Jesus? Nonetheless as I go through my research on gospel movies, Jesus of Nazareth seems to hold up the best. Personally I enjoy Jesus of Nazareth and then The Passion of the Christ for the ending portion.

[@MLGGiraffe]

Nobody is perfectly fit for the role of Jesus. Yes, Roumie has his personal issues, but so does literally every other actor who has ever portrayed Jesus. All have fallen short of the glory of God, it's the actual performance and portrayal you need to judge and hold up to scripture. Jim Caviezel (the actor who portrays Jesus in The Passion of the Christ) is also a Roman Catholic, as well as Mel Gibson, the director of the film. The Chosen does have a handful of issues with their portrayal of Jesus. Particularly, my biggest issue I took was with the leading up to the sermon on the mount. I believe their portrayal of Jesus in this time is inaccurate and I didn't like how they handled it. But aside from this one scene, it's a fairly solid portrayal, where I only have smaller nitpicks here and there. Unfortunately, many who criticize that show, I don't believe have actually watched much of it, if any at all (I'm not accusing you, I'm just speaking generally here). The show is certainly worthy of some valid critique, but much of it has been puffed up. I had to watch the show for myself to realize that much of the controversy is nonsense. Not sure if you've seen them or not, but this channel has actually done videos analyzing each season of the show and ranking it's Biblical accuracy. Each season so far has scored pretty high, with the biggest inaccuracies typically being timeline changes. I'd recommend checking them out if you haven't already.

Being here, with my eyes, of an important documentary film, the number of the errors seems to me rather unacceptable. I think that a great production needs also a great precision, even concerning the details. Thank you...And here is a new subscriber!!

[@adoramy2013]

I think the prodigal son story in the movie was meant for Peter, as the ending of that scene had Peter and Matthew becoming bff?

[@cofieleven]

There are scenes in this movie that seem not to happen in the Bible, for example Jesus never said to Judas, open your heart, open your eyes. And Jesus never had a conversation with Barrabas.

Actually the movie Jesus was having dinner with the Pharisees so we don't know who the lady was.

[@Psalm1101]

He was great it was all the actors over the top

[@itinerantpatriot1196]

I own the video and I still watch it. The three parts that have always bothered me are the portrayal of Judas and Mary Magdalene as well as the Crucifixion. Judas comes off as a sage who acts a mediator between the followers of Jesus and the Zealots. He believes Christ is the Messiah and hands Jesus over to the Temple leaders in order that he might prove himself. You can scour the Gospels all the live long day and not find the Judas portrayed in the film. This would be a bit more inexcusable if Judas was some bit player but his betrayal is central to the Passion and he was a disciple. The director should not have gone so far a field there. As for Mary Magdalene, she is portrayed as the prostitute who washed Jesus' feet with her tears and dried them with her hair. That was done by another woman. Mary Magdalene had seven demons cast out of her and she was one of the women who followed and supported Christ afterward. She wasn't part of the inner circle The Bible mini-series portrays her to be but she wasn't a fallen woman. Jesus of Nazareth falls back on the old trope laid on Mary by Pope Gregory in the 6th Century, labeling her a prostitute. Finally, as the reviewer points out, the film gets the location of the Crucifixion and construction of the Cross completely wrong. I think this may have been the result of consulting historians rather than theologians. I have seen secular documentaries on the Crucifixion of Christ that point in the direction the film takes. Their claims are based on writings about Roman Crucifixion where the condemned person carries the top beam, not the entire cross. But all of the Gospels agree Christ carried His cross, not just the top cross beam. That said, I like the movie. As a life-long student of history whose major was split between political science and history I have had to come to terms with inaccuracies in every historical or biographic film. Directors will take license and actors often want their characters spiced up a bit. It used to bother me but as I say, I have learned to look past it, provided the spirit of the movie is honest. Some biblical and faith-based movies like Noah and The Popes Exorcist are purposefully off-the-mark because the intent is to ridicule Christianity. Those aren't worth watching at all. Jesus of Nazareth doesn't fall into that category. Like The Bible mini-series, the producer and director wanted to tell a compelling story based on biblical teaching. So if they miss a bit I'm okay with it. It was a major TV event when I was a young man and it introduced people to Jesus who otherwise wouldn't have been interested. That's not a bad thing. This review was fair. It touched on things the director got wrong, but it didn't slam the movie. Not bad. Thanks for posting.

Christianity began as sun worship, the stories about Jesus are symbolic. He is just a personification of the sun, made into a god figure later on. The sun "dies" for 3 days on December 22nd, the winter solstice, when it stops its movement south, to be born again or resurrected on December 25th, when it resumes its movement north. In some areas, the calendar originally began in the constellation of Virgo, and the sun would therefore be "born of a Virgin" The sun rising in the morning is "the saviour of mankind" The sun is "The light of the World" The sun "walks on water" is just the reflection of the sun on water/the sea. "He cometh on clouds, and every eye shall see him", is just sun rays. Jesus' "crown of thorns" is just the sun's glare, also know as a halo. The sun's "followers", "helpers" or "disciples" are the 12 months and the 12 signs of the zodiac or constellations, through which the sun must pass. The sun at 12 noon is in the house or temple of the "Most High": thus.."he" begins "his Father's work" at "age" 12. The sun enters into each sign of the zodiac at 30 degrees, hense, the "Sun of God" begins his ministry at "age" 30. The sun is hung on a cross or "crucified", which represents its passing through the equinoxes. The vernal equinox being Easter, at which time it is then resurrected. The reason why saviour myths are so similar with a godman who is crucified and resurrected, who does miracles and has 12 disciples, is that these stories were based on the movements of the sun through the heavens, an astrotheological development that can be found throughout the planet, because the sun and the 12 zodiac signs can be observed around the globe. In other words, Jesus Christ and all the others upon whom this character is predicated are personifications of the sun, and the Gospel fable is merely a rehash of a mythological formula revolving around the movements of the sun throug the heavens. Christianity is ancient astrology, it's just fables about the sun. Check out Acharya S aka D.M Murdock for more info. .. ..

I think you're being highly critical, ridiculously so, thousands of people got saved from this movie, obviously small details, if you're NOT A CHRISTIAN YET, or don't every word of the Gospels, in detail, how would you know that? Do you witness to people by giving them the entire Old and New Testaments?! Of course, after getting saved, if you truly repent, and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit or a Christian will instruct you, and you'll learn through a Pastor, and do as Scripture says! There were a few things, as you say, I saw being theatrical like when Jesus spoke about the Law, and a few other things! The Holy Spirit is the One who draws you to Christ, as JESUS SAID, No man can come unless the Spirit draw him, and the Holy Ghost was definitely felt in this movie, you can look at thousands of comments and see how many people were saved! Some of what you say is ridiculous, you've obviously read the Bible, studied it, and have been saved awhile, however people being drawn to Jesus Christ, and the Gospel, don't have all that information! You remind me a bit of a Pharisee, lol, but as a brother, you're entitled to your opinion. I agree with the depiction of Judas, definitely off, but I read some of the Gospel before seeing this movie. The Gospel accounts, each one, have slightly different interpretations, some leave out things others put in, I think the generation you came up in is WAY TOO TECHNICAL, not enough Grace, which is what calls us to the Cross of Calvary, RIGHT?!
