4.0 out of 5 stars dorf, 3 Nov 2008

By	dorf "dorf" (UK) - See all my reviews

This boxed set is not described here by Amazon, and that makes it impossible to know what the content is. In fact some of the same dvds are offered by Amazon separately, so if you do not know which episodes are in this set you may already have some (like I did when I purchased this) or you may order some on a duplicated basis in the same order. So beware. For your information I will list the content here so that you can avoid this problem.

This set (The Bible) is the largest TV-based movie ever undertaken, and not to be confused with other films also named "The Bible", some of which are also sold here on Amazon.

The stars here include Ben Kingsley, Gary Oldman, Richard Harris, Dennis Hopper, Oliver Reed, Sean Bean, Barbara Hershey, Jeremy Sisto, Michael Gambon, Christopher Lee, Jonathan Pryce and Diana Rigg. Directors of the films in this series include Academy and Emmy award-winners Joseph Sargent, Roger Young, Nicolas Roeg and Robert Markowitz, with title music composed, arranged and conducted by the legendary Ennio Morricone.

This set includes all thirteen installments of the original award-winning Bible Series and all four episodes of the original "Close to Jesus" have been integrated to form this collection, of over 37 hours of movie running time.

The Box Set contains the following dvds:

Abraham
Apocalypses Revelation
David
Esther
Genesis
Jacob
Jeremiah
Jesus
Joseph
Joseph Of Nazareth
Judas
Mary Magdalene
Moses
Saint Paul
Samson And Delilah
Solomon
Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Bible box set - particularly Jeremiah, 13 Oct 2008

By	James (Hampshire, England) - See all my reviews

Excellent acting throughout! Especially enjoyed watching Oliver Reed, who played Jeremiah.
I loved the films and felt they were an invaluable witness to all, and would definitely recommend them.
I took the Set on holiday to Peru for my relatives.
My daughter's mother in law who is blind could only hear the Jesus film but was profoundly touched by it, she made a lot of appreciative noises and she cannot speak through having a brain tumour. Your thoughts and prayers for her would be greatly appreciated.
Only criticism was, maybe not 100% scripturally precise. An element of poetic licence only so common when producing films.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not too sure..., 15 Aug 2009

By	Mr. Costa Vaggas "first2xl" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Be aware that, whilst the David DVD is fairly good, having watched Mary Magdalene this bears little relevance to the Biblical account of Mary. It is for all intents and purposes an entirely different story. Artistic license? Nope, a made up story of a wealthy Mary conned out of her wealth by her husband, driven into slavery and into two relationships with Roman legionnaires. There is no mention of her being a prostitute. Theologians argue over the identity of the woman caught in the act of adultery (the "let him who is without sin cast the first stone" episode). It is definitely not referred to in this movie. I imagine that Joseph of Nazareth amd Thomas may be similar as little is mentioned of them in the Bible.
