Informative, Balanced, Thought-Provoking October 19, 2000 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
This is a documentary series of seven videos each of which features a different Biblical story: "Queen Esther, Far and Long Ago"; "The Apocalypse, The Puzzle of Revelation"; "The Execution of Jesus"; "Arch Enemy, The Philistines"; "Abraham, One Man, One God"; "Prophets, Soul Catchers"; and "Joseph, Master of Dreams."Balanced, thought-provoking, and informative is how I would describe each of the seven presentations. The multimedia approach to telling the stories and in discussing their significance is both entertaining and engaging. The use of art, video, and interview adds dimensions that are rarely expressed in Sunday school, church, or other settings. Presented in historical context with the benefit of modern scholarship, the series describes the stories with their textual difficulties and their timeless core of truth. Each of the presentations draws the viewers attention to the central mystery of faith and invites a closer look. In brief, each of the stories comes to life to challenge the viewer in the same way as they must challenged their original hearers.
