Upon its release, it was proclaimed uneven, an "a noble failure" by film critics but personally I maintain that George Steven's epic work is one of the most inspirational accounts of the life of Christ ever filmed. And one of the most inspirational film scores by Alfred Newman ever written.

Ever since I was a little girl, this scene struck me powerfully. When I grew old enough to understand it better, it made me cry every time- to have it so silent, so dramatic, then to slowly bring in the Hallelujah Chorus (what has long been my favorite Easter song) leaves such an impact, it leaves me shaken- fantastic directing and use of Händel's Messiah - it's just...perfection. It has become tradition for me to watch this scene especially for Easter. Thank you for posting this and sharing! :)

brucefan26 Jesus is also angry at them as well. There was and is so much going on spiritually at that point in time. Honestly it’s incredibly amazing what God will do to speak to us. Our Lord is completely in all of His words and deeds.

[@reinamatheny9972]

I think it was because of their unbelief Jesus wept ~ but He also felt their pain and grief.

it always hurts me the way they speak to Jesus..I hate it. It was not His job to raise everyone from the dead..their words and tone are So full of contempt and accusation..but Yes watching Jesus raise Lazarus is magnificent!! Scholars say His late arrival was intentional so that He could raise him from the dead.

[@Bimfirestarter]

@@themoralreformchronicles9231 That's not at all what the Biblical account says. It says he looked at all the people grieving for Lazarus and his family and this caused Jesus to groan within himself and moved him to tears. It was just a very human moment of empathy.

[@Bimfirestarter]

@@reinamatheny9972 It was just because Jesus saw how in grief people were and he had deep empathy. That's what the Bible says about why he wept at this point, no more, no less.

Some comments on the music.The early part of the score by Alfred Newman, one of my favorites, was lifted almost note for note from one of Newman's other scores, "The Robe." The music which accompanied scenes of Van Heflin, Sal Mineo and Gary Raymond was the music used when Victor Mature gazed on Jesus as He died. Also, Newman vehemently objected to the use of Handel's "Messiah," but George Stevens insisted on using it.

[@stephenbastasch7893]

Yes, the first part is from The Robe; the second part is Newman's own new contribution of his "Hallelujah", also found on the original soundtrack album track, "The Great Journey"; the final part of course is the Handel.

Van Heflin was beyond extraordinary in this film and specially on this scene. The triptych formula made between him and the blind man with Judas looking in their opposite was very impressive, as much of the great photography throughout this film of the 1960s

[@jtc1947]

@ pendragon....Van Heflin played the part perfectly. An onlooker who was amazed and stunned by what HE had witnessed!

[@chopperpilot5]

Though I prefer King of Kings 1961. This scene is the reason Von Sydow I like better as Jesus, this moment is the most powerfull scene I have ever seen!!! No words, little music, and his face convays everything. It sends a chill down my spine.

[@aaronhusar24]

WOW Bethany seems to be in close distance to Jerusalem in this movie, they just ran there without getting tired. Even Old Aram was able to make that journey. This is the best cinematic portrayal of Jesus' fame spreading and shows how Jesus built up a crowd especially after raising Lazarus. Definitely a powerful scene to end the first half of the movie with. This is perhaps one of the most reverent portrayals of Jesus out there and one of the few that gives Jesus short hair.

[@jlynchyarts]

I saw this film when I was seven. Lot of water has passed under the bridge. This scene STILL sits deeply as one of the greatest retellings of a bible story. The MUSIC ... if I coud play it on an instrument i would, each an every day. It truly brings wings to the regal liftoff. I hope this movie will be released in some way shape or form.

[@04r32murse]

John 11:4 When he heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God’s glory so that God’s Son may be glorified through it.” John 11:14-15 So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead, 15 and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.” Thank you Lord for your glorious miracles. He knew we needed to witness the greatest of all miracles. Without Him there is no life, with Him there is life everlasting, all we have to do is believe in Jesus, Glory Hallelujah.

Such a beautiful scene from a great film. I would love to see this scene with the original Alfred Newman score, which is available on CD. Newman was so disappointed. George Stevens used cues from Newman's 'The Robe' and Handel's Messiah.

Act 10:34 Peter began to speak. I now realize that it is true that God treats everyone on the same basis.

[@USARightPatriot1]

[@stephenbastasch7893]

Saw this when I was a kid in its Cinerama premier, found it intriguing. For clarification re: the soundtrack in this scene: George Stevens insisted that Alfred Newman re-use his crucifixion music from The Robe for the build-up to Lazarus exiting the tomb. After that point, Newman had written a glorious "Hallelujah" to finish the scene and lead to the intermission. However, Stevens then insisted that Newman's Hallelujah be replaced completely with Handel's Messiah. Later on, Stevens then decided to re-instate PART of Newman's Hallelujah. It is the "filling" in the musical sandwich between The Robe music and the Handel chorus. Newman's Hallelujah is identical to a theme that he wrote that appears in the first part of the film, titled on the original vinyl soundtrack album as The Great Journey. This has some resemblance to Franz Waxman's main theme for Demetrius and the Gladiators, but it is actually quite original and idenpendent. You can listen to Newman's new, original Hallelujah written specifically for this film on the two-disc soundtrack album, where it correctly appears for the Lazarus scene - and, in a "quieter" rendition for Jesus's own resurrection scene. Both versions are simply grand. It is a pity that Stevens hired the venerable Newman but then so callously trimmed down his powerful original film score.

[@neilam6]

This is one of the most powerful scenes I have ever seen

[@VernHestandIII]

Lazarus was not mentioned again in the scripture except in a parable spoken by Jesus. Its safe to assume that he was among the believers who gathers after Christ's resurrection, but the accounts that we have prove that the message is more important than the individuals involved...
