Les Miserables_I give you back to God.mp4

Somewhat ironically, the Bishop was written as a criticism of the Christians of the day as well. Per wikipedia: "As Hugo set to work on the novel in 1848 after a long interruption, his anti-clerical son Charles objected to presenting Myriel as "a prototype of perfection and intelligence", suggesting instead someone from "a liberal, modern profession, like a doctor". The novelist replied:[3] I cannot put the future into the past. My novel takes place in 1815. For the rest, this Catholic priest, this pure and lofty figure of true priesthood, offers the most savage satire on the priesthood today."

There was a drill instructor I loathed when I was matriculating through infantry school. I had a long road ahead of me of wanting to become a combat and flight medic. There was one particular cadre everyone feared, Dr. Sergeant Schwartz. He was older than most of the other drill instructors. He had hair so blonde, it was almost white and piercing blue eyes. During physical fitness, he was the main instructor for the tier-1 soldiers that were the most physically fit, within our company. In other words, his running group, on average, was running 2 mile in under 12:00 minutes and long runs consisting of 5-8 miles. You didn't train with him unless you meet very high standards (I was glad I didn't fall into his group... I didn't need that type of pain). By the 3rd week of school, I noticed many of the drill instructors didn't interact with him, however, EVERYONE RESPECTED HIM. He didn't curse, didn't make fun of anyone, and mostly was an observer. He was peculiar, in many ways. For instance, he refereed to individuals in the plural as Bravo Company and when anyone failed would comment WE ALL just needed more proper motivation... more discipline. I feared him because he expected a level of physical and mental standards that frankly I didn't think I was capable of. He expected nothing short of excellence from everyone. You made a mistake and that was it. He was owed pain and sweat. One day, I received a letter my mother had a serious injury. The next day was our PT test. I didn't have it in me to run 3 miles. I dropped out of the run which would have resulted in being sent home. Upon dropping out, he knew there was something wrong. He immediately ran behind me and motivated me till the end of the run. I had to do 200 push ups for falling out of the run. While the other drill instructors were laughing at me, because I was silently sobbing (due to my mother), he saw me quite again. I just didn't care. He got down on the ground and told me to look at him. He kept telling me, "It's OK...just don't stop... don't stop." Shortly after, I explained to him what had happened. Later that day, he called me to his office. He waited outside and said to pick up the phone. It was my mom (she was OK). I walked out of his office attempting to fight tears. He walked up to me and told me, "private... you don't quite... ever!" There was an African private, Abbo, with a very heavy accent. Initially, everyone thought Drill Sergeant Schwartz was racist because he was always yelling at Abbo but strangely would always pull him to the side and have long talks with him. Many of us thought Drill Sergeant Schwartz was being an outright bigot and picking on the soldier. It was only later, during graduation, when we saw a tall beautiful African woman run up to Sergeant Schwarz, along with her infant child, embracing Sergeant Schwarz with tears and repeatedly telling him thank you. She kept thanking him so much for talking to immigration to fast track her citizenship. Obviously, she was Abbo's wife. Sergeant Schwartz had a brother in law, who worked in immigration, who made sure Abbo's family would be there for his graduation. Right before graduation, Drill Sergeant Schwartz was conducting a long 12 mile road march. A soldier fainted on the road march due to a heat stroke. He carried the crippled soldier for half a mile so the soldier wouldn't have to repeat the last phase of training again. He asked me to pick up his ruck sack and to put it in the medical jeep. To my surprise, I found out he put weights in his ruck sack. I asked him why the weights and he replied, "Because that's what it takes to elevate yourself when you don't think you're smart enough or strong enough." When I finally graduated, I saw him in full dress uniform. The decorations/honors were nothing short of breathe taking: the infantry blue cord, the Airborne tab, the U.S. Ranger tab, expert marksman tab, a master jumper, and the blue special forces tab. He was the most decorated soldier there. To everyone's surprise his family was there, as well. He had a beautiful wife along with six to seven girls that loved and adored their father dearly. He was so compassionate/tender with his family. This was a side most of us didn't think was possible. At the time, I didn't know what to make out of it. He made a profound impact on me because he bestowed a special level of kindness/respect towards me and others that wasn't deserving but was given graciously. I graduated last in my class in high school. My future wasn't the brightest, so I had to join the military to pay for college. He taught me what true perseverance was and most importantly, he taught me humility. I graduated with my Ph.D in chemical physics and masters in theoretical chemistry four years ago. It wasn't easy and it cost me dearly (living in isolation... not having a life for 11 years). If it wasn't for him demanding and living a life of excellence that was nothing short of extraordinary, I would have never achieved anything in life. Watching this scene reminds me so much of him. He showed me kindness when I needed it most and didn't even understand why until years later. There isn't one day that doesn't go by that I don't think about him.

I actually really like this version. In most versions of the story, the priest turns Valjean to the righteous path through naught but his good will and inspiring mercy. In this though, the priest is a spiritual hard nose that basically tells Valjean "you've already been through Hell, now make something of yourself dammit!" It's a very different take but it is an interesting one.

Notice how the Gendarme represent justice, the bishop represents Christ, and Jean Val Jean represents all of us. Notice how the Bishop does not hate justice (the gendarme) he offers them wine. Yet because of Christ's sacrifice for us (represented by the pieces of silver), He can show Jean mercy. Justice does not rob mercy, and mercy does not rob justice because of Christ's sacrifice for all of us in the garden and on the cross.

Give to him who begs from you, and do not refuse him who would borrow from you." Matthew 5:38-42 The bishop in this scene is truly living the message of Christ.

In my opinion, this is the most powerful chapter chapter / scene in all of literature / film. It perfectly portrays the type of person that many of us are in some respects (Valjean before his transformation by the Bishop's pure love and charity) and the type of person that we should strive to become (the Bishop). I believe that Victor Hugo was inspired of God as he wrote this.

[@piemuggs]

I had never seen this movie, but my sister had the soundtrack for the musical when I was growing up, so I'd heard of the story. My wife and I were in a prophetic class and they gave us an exercise to ask God for a movie for the other person and she just kept getting Jean Val Jean and gave me an idea of what his character was like. It intrigued me enough to search out a copy of this version and when I came to this scene I felt God's mercy all over it and I began to weep at the beauty of His generosity and love for His children. The next day, I had a group of people pray for me and a girl got a word for me and though she thought it was weird she said "Candlestick?" I laughed and was reminded of just how much God is involved in our lives. He sees when we weep and he honors every tear. He was affirming for me that I was right in seeing his Spirit all over that scene and that he led me to experience him in that way. Even the darkness of Hollywood cannot keep out the light and love of God.

[@MrDJS444]

I have changed my mind - this is now my favorite depiction of this scene. Its harshness compared to the others, and especially Valjean hitting the Bishop, used to taint it a bit for me, but I now appreciate the scene for its realism and find that I can better relate to it as a result. The world is a harsh place, and Valjean’s actions and the Bishop’s reactions in this depiction are very credible. All of which make the Bishop’s incredible act of charity at the end - and Valjean’s stupefaction at what was happening - more impactful, at least for me.

[@MrDJS444]

Just watched this again and two more parallels between the Bishop and the Saviour jumped out at me. 1. The candlesticks are like the parable in Matthew 5: “If any man will ... take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.” 2. The releasing of the handcuffs is more than just mercy tempering justice - it is also a metaphor for being released from the bondage of sin. John 8:36: “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”

This is excellent. This scene made me cry. Those who hurt us are the people we need to forgive for them to given back to God. We forgive and we let God to take charge. We exercise the attribute of God through forgiveness. Mercy is the most beautiful trait of God given to humans. Humans as we are, we are not perfect. We can only live this life with forgiveness. Love cannot be given without forgiveness. We are all striving to be what Christ had shown to the people: mercy on the cross. "Forgive them for they do not know what they are doing." The people hurt us because they had no idea how much God loves them because someone people have been mean to them or people have been unjust to them. The priest showed how much of Christ he had become. He has already forgiven him through Christ. Forgiveness can transform human heart. If we forgive those who have harm us and hurt us through the grace of Jesus Christ, this world will be a peaceful place. We all contribute to peace in the world. We cannot put the blame for lack of peace to the leaders of nations bombing another nation without us doing our own piece of work torwards justice and peace. Let us pray that people will be more transformative in our work for justice and peace through forgiveness.

You forget this is NOT mere fiction. The bishop was modeled after a real bishop of Digne. Hugo's Bishop was called Bishop Charles-François-Bienvenu Myriel. At the same time the novel is set, the Bishop of Digne was called François-Melchior-Charles-Bienvenu de Miollis. Up to this day, he is revered in the diocese of Digne as a kind and charitable man - which is why he had received the name "bienvenu" - "welcome" to begin with.

Valjean KNOWS he's guilty. The Bishop hands Valjean the 2 candle-holders he had left, leaving him bewildered, asking the Bishop why he let him go. The Bishop says he had bought Valjean’s life; he gave him the silverware, so now, Valjean should go and live a life of goodness and obedience to God. The Bishop’s doing, on a small scale, parallels the sacrifice of Christ-the bishop gave up his greatest treasure, so God gives up His greatest gift, His son, which demands a response from people.
