Well, it certainly captured the majesty, but Jesus didn't really have majesty on earth. He was merely a lowly carpenter, as Isaiah 53:2 says: "He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him." That's why I consider The Chosen to be a series more grounded in reality. I mean, if this particular film helps you feel closer to him, that's really all that matters, though.

The Chosen shows the Lord's Fully God AND fully human truth!! I believe it possibly helps those who aren't sure yet, HIS TRUTH and how He completely knows us. ❤❤

@@RLocksley That's certainly true regarding the Isaiah reference. Whenever I read the gospels however, there were clearly numerous points where Jesus revealed His glory to the disciples (John 2:11, the wedding at Cana or Mark 9:2-9, the transfiguration, Mark 4:11-25, to you it's been given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom), including moments like this adaptation where Jesus is revealing the Father's plans ... "And they were amazed/terrified/astonished!" It's interesting because I don't believe it's possible for media to capture the complexity and many facets of Jesus, which is why we have the gospels. For me, I love the Chosen series but can sometimes struggle with it's contemporary American lens whereas Franco Zefferelli, the director of this miniseries was a highly conservative catholic - hence the reverent, classically European depiction, which too can have it's disadvantages. It is amazing that God can use each interpretation to bring viewers closer to Him.
