The Bible: The Epic Mini Series


The 10-part miniseries meets the overwhelming
challenge of bringing the story of the Bible to
film in a way that embraces modern technology
and makes the stories seem relevant and fresh to
today's audiences. The Bible was truly a project
of passion for executive producers Mark Burnett
and Roma Downey. By focusing on hope and
love as the string of continuity throughout the
Bible from Genesis to Revelation, Burnett,
Roma, and the writers and filmmakers have
created a powerful series about a historical text
that's at once action film, adventure, and even
love story. The many stories included in this
presentation include those of Adam and Eve,
Noah and the ark, the birth of Abraham's son
Isaac, Moses's parting of the Red Sea, David and
Goliath, Samson and Delilah, Mary's conception
of Jesus and his birth, the crucifixion of Jesus,
and the spread of Jesus's word through his
disciples. Each of the 10 episodes is powerfully
rendered--the subject matter is by nature moving,
and the costuming, special effects, settings, and
filming choices are fitting and realistic.

The best thing about this miniseries is that it functions so well on three very disparate levels: it
serves as an affirmation of faith and a bringing to life of a beloved story for the devout, a
reminder and re-igniter of faith for those raised in faith who may have strayed from religion, and
an overview of the Bible's stories and a catalyst for faith for those who may never have been
exposed to the Bible. It offers an overview of most of the major, as well as some of the minor
events related in the Bible and conveys a strong sense of the emotion, faith, devotion, and even
fervor that has driven religious belief for thousands of years. The Bible: The Epic Miniseries is
well crafted and powerfully delivered and it absolutely lives up to its professed desire to preserve
the true spirit of the Bible.

Number of discs: 4 DVDs

2. The Bible Collection: Greatest
Stories of All Time
Experience the beauty and majesty of the greatest stories of all time with this 6-DVD set.
Magnificently produced, all of these award-winning feature-length films richly illustrate the
strength, courage, and faith that have sustained mankind for generations. You'll be both
entertained and educated as they tell the stories of Jesus, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Joshua,
Samson & Delilah and more in a way that is understandable and enjoyable for the whole family.

DVD 1: Abraham: Starring Richard Harris


as Abraham and Barbara Hershey as
Sarah, Abraham is one of the most faithful
movies in The Bible Collection. The dialogue is
often verbatim from the English text of the
Bible. Even so, Harris and Hershey breathe such
life into their roles that this movie is, in my
opinion, the best in the entire series. It even
deserves a high rank among the best Bible
movies ever filmed. 3 hrs., 7 min/NR.

DVD 2 : Joseph: In Joseph, The Bible


Collection returns to form. With great
performances by Ben Kingsley as Potiphar, Paul
Mercurio as Joseph, and Martin Landau as
Jacob, Joseph tells the compelling story about
Israel's son sold into slavery by his own
treacherous brothers, Joseph rises to become the
just king of Egypt decades later-but his wisdom
is put to the test when his brothers return.. 3 hrs.,
7 min/NR/fullscreen.

DVD 3: Moses: An uneven retelling of the Moses story, the sheer force and epic of which
pales in comparison to more grand Hollywood adaptations of this story. Even so, there are some
interesting interpretive decisions on the part of the filmmakers that show real sensitivity to the
biblical text. For instance, Moses is presented as a man of poor speech, who is ridiculed by the
Pharoah and his court in his years living within that household, in sharp contrast to the eloquent
and imposing Moses of the Ten Commandments. 3 hrs. 2 in/NR.
DVD 4: Samson and Delilah: Samson is a simple shepherd with the strength of a titan and
the destiny to fight the Philistines and General Tariq. Delilah is a Philistine beauty, torn between
her love for the shepherd and loyalty to her people. As told in the Old Testament, Samson's
betrayal by Delilah left him in slavery. But Samson's epic revenge vanquished his Philistine foes
and made him one of the greatest heroes of the Bible. Samson and Delilah is the powerful tale of
a deception that brought down an empire... and sealed their names in eternity.

DVD 5: Joshua: Joshua & The Battle Of Jericho is one of the most inspiring stories in the
Old Testament. It suggests that anything can be accomplished when one has faith in God. Now,
with this beautifully animated film, you and your family can experience the power of this classic
tale. As the story begins, we learn that the Israelites-under the leadership of Moses-have been
wandering the wilderness for forty years. Now, they are about to enter the Promised Land. But
Moses will not be going with them. His time has come to join God in Heaven. And so, a young
man named Joshua is appointed to take Moses' place. Like Moses, Joshua realizes that nothing
can be accomplished without God's help. The Lord rewards Joshua for his faith by revealing a
plan that will allow the Israelites to take the city of Jericho. As the action unfolds, we witness a
series of divine miracles reminiscent of those which allowed the Israelites to escape from Egypt
many years earlier. And eventually, we rejoice with them, as they enter the Promised Land.

DVD 6: Jesus: Jeremy Sisto stars as the son of God in this 174 minute production that
vividly explores the life and mission of Jesus of Nazareth. Epic in scale and featuring a strong
supporting cast (Gary Oldman, Debra Messing, Jacqueline Bisset, Luca Zingaretti, Jeroen
Krabbe, Armin Mueller-Stahl and David O'Hara), this drama traces Jesus' journey from simple
carpenter to spiritual leader, philosopher and martyr - focusing on his compassionate teachings as
well as his relationships with Mary, Joseph, his apostles, persecutors, and the heavenly father
