The Chosen is actually a pretty good adaptation of the biblical story of Jesus. It's pretty sympathetic to the pharisees and Romans which surprised me. It's not actually great television but I've never seen a better take on this story. They made Matthew autistic for some reason which is hilarious
>>220530508bet the midget is judas
Jesus was a blonde eyed blue haired scandanavian
>>220530830modern-day scandinavians migrated from the east and also to places like india the middle east and the mediterranean
>>220530802No that's Peter (formerly Simon) Judas is looking up at him in the chair
>>220530508It's literally episodic Friends with Jesus as Chandler and Peter as Joey.

>>220530508Taking off my Christian hat and putting on my kino lover hat, It is a very good show, with great performances, sets, lots of great little details that make it historically immersive, if I have one criticism it’s that in season five mainly some of the cute quips take me out of it a little like how many times is someone going to say something and Jesus looks at the screen, and says “I know” then winks. And them making Mathew not just an autist but a cliche turbo autist is an odd choice . Like how autistic could you even be back then, every thing smelled like shit, math couldn’t have been that advanced. There were no trains. Little gripes but I have a feeling because people who watch are generally Christian they’d be hesitant to give any criticism, which is silly because it’s not scripture it’s just art and it probably needs some criticism
>They made Matthew autistic for some reason All of the disciples being literally retarded is the only way to explain how Jesus has to keep explaining the same blatantly obvious things over and over to them. >>220531088It's the most obvious metaphor in the bible, the fig tree represents the temple/judaism he is saying those institutions are worthless (literally fruitless) now and being replaced by him. After the events of the gospels the temple is destroyed and jews are banned from jerusalem.
>>220530985>Peter, the one who cut the ear off a Roman soldier Based manlet rage
>>220531153OP here I'm an athiest and enjoying it. Probably the best Christian media I've seen even though the bar is not that high
>>220531088He was having a laugh
>>220531164Don't worry Jesus explains the fig tree metaphor a few minutes later
>>220530508Why do middle easterners have big noses?
>>220531864Because the Romans with their big ass noses occupied the Middle East and bred the women
