Featured review
Food and Storms
I've been an avid Bible student since I was 21 years old. Prior to that I lived my life without caring what my Creator thought about my choices. My Bible study has only increased in the over the 40 years since I first started reading the Gospel accounts.
I know the Bible very well and am thoroughly enjoying The Chosen series. Naturally, since I am so familiar with the Bible account, I have some opinions about this series. I believe it is important to point out that less than 10% of each episode of The Chosen is actually from the Bible accounts. Ninety percent of these episodes are embellishments; the producer's ideas of how the Bible characters may have spoken, looked and acted, beyond what is written in the Bible. I have no problem with those embellishments. As a matter of fact, I appreciate and enjoy much of the non-biblical inventions by the writers of this series.
I would like to speak about the good and the not so good embellishments created by the writers of this series. I hope you will not be offended by my critique.
Season 3, Episode 8 Jesus feeds thousands and walks on water. This is one of the best episodes yet, especially since it has a high amount of Scriptural content. The inventive embellishments of the writers are rabbi Shmuel and the issues with Eden. Simon Peter's wife is not named in the Bible and she does not have any story lines in Scripture. Also, there is no controversy in the Decapolis in Scripture. Other than that, this episode is true to Bible accounts except that the writers have depicted Simon Peter as a bit too temperamental in my opinion. In Scripture we see that Peter is brash and outspoken, but he is always zealous, never irreverent as when he pushes over the basket of food in this episode. I love the depiction of feeding the hungry masses and stopping a violent storm as this shows what Jesus as God's appointed King will do forever for mankind when God's Kingdom comes "on Earth as it is in Heaven" after the wicked are eliminated in Armageddon.
Biblical content in this episode; 50%. Matthew 14:15-34; Matthew 13:3-9; 44-46.
