[QUOTE="Akita Suggagaki, post: 77607964, member: 411568"] There is quite a bit in the movie that is not "biblically accurate". That is because the Gospels are summaries without a great deal of context. [I]The Chosen [/I]provides context that while in detail may not be accurate, like exact words and statements, does give a sense of background. Some of it is purely speculative, like Matthew being autistic, Thomas being the caterer at the wedding in Cana ...ok, poetic license. All that makes it more entertaining and engaging. brings the words to life. I am not sure it is such a big issue given the figurative language Jesus used. in the actual Gospels. [LIST] [*]I am the bread of life. 6:35, 48, 51. [*]I am the light of the world. 8:12; 9:5. [*]I am the door of the sheep. 10:7, 9. [*]I am the good shepherd. 10:11, 14. [*]I am the resurrection and the life. 11:25. [*]I am the way, the truth, and the life. 14:6. [*]I am the true vine. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
