From Producer Stephen McEveety (The Passion of the Christ) comes an amazing documentary on the Star of Bethlehem.
私たちの時代の33年。 ローマのユダヤ州では、ナザレのイエスという名の神秘的な大工が「神の王国」の到来を告げ始め、謙虚な漁師のグループ、使徒たちに囲まれています。 何世紀もの間、ユダヤ人はメシアの到来を待っていました。メシアは、神聖な故郷を解放し、正義に基づいて新しい秩序を確立する摂理的な人物です。 イエスの教えは、彼がメシアであると認識する多くの信者を引き付けます。 状況に驚いたサンヘドリンは、十二使徒の一人であるイスカリオテのユダの助けを借りて、イエスを逮捕しました。 ローマに対する反逆罪で告発されたキリストはポンティウス・ピラトに引き渡されます。

Haunted by the shadows of his past misdeeds, Paul wonders if he's been forgotten as he awaits his grisly execution. Before Paul's death, Luke resolves to write another book that details the birth of what will come to be known as the church.
Brian Cohen is an average young Jewish man, but through a series of ridiculous events, he gains a reputation as the Messiah. When he's not dodging his followers or being scolded by his shrill mother, the hapless Brian has to contend with the pompous Pontius Pilate and acronym-obsessed members of a separatist movement. Rife with Monty Python's signature absurdity, the tale finds Brian's life paralleling Biblical lore, albeit with many more laughs.
The film is notable for presenting a more human Jesus, compared to more solemn portrayals in earlier films; here Jesus laughs and cries like anyone else. Among other things, he weeps at Joseph’s funeral, throws stones in Lake Galilee when meeting Simon Peter and James son of Zebedee for the first time, dances at the wedding at Cana, and starts a water-splashing fight with his disciples as well. Satan is portrayed as a man in modern dress (and as a woman in red). During his temptation of Jesus, he shows him the Earth from the vantage point of space. Satan also shows Jesus images of wars and destruction carried out in his name. The film adds an apocryphal Roman historian named “Livio” who watches and comments as events unfold; he is presumably named after Livy.

With the help of Miss Clara, an older, wiser woman, Elizabeth discovers she can start fighting for her family instead of against them.
