@lleosupercluster .....contrary to the commonly perceived images which most are accustomed to. Nobody noticed him when he walked but he gathered a multitude when he talked. Now, these descriptions are from 'certain traditions' which the church prefer we rather ignore and embrace the glorified image similar to the ones portrayed in pictures, movies and TV.
@lleosupercluster ......the practice of interpreting the image of Lord Yeshua began primarily during the renaissance period and guess what? They all began to look like Michaelangelo-type Italians. Those images began to look more like western Europeans as the practice moved westward. I even saw a black Christ in Africa and one with slit-eyes in China. Certain traditions had Lord Yeshua described as an inauspicious individual, short in stature, curly hair with a tanned Mediterranean skin..
Cavizel, Powell.....all Westernized Christs. For petesake Yeshua never looked like either of them. By the way, the lord was a an Easterner and NOT, I repeat NOT a Westerner. Yes, Israel is part of the territory that is geographically & politically known as West Asia. Israelis then dont look like the Israelis of today who appear more western due to intermarriage in Europe. Israelis then were more tanned and Mediterranean in outlook and not like 'Spielberg'.
I just added the whole movie except part 25 that lionsgate removed. I also feel "Jesus of Nazereth" was the best Jesus movie. I have added some songs from the passion of the Christ recently and would like to see that movie too. Robert played from the Spirit of Christ even if he himself says he is atheist his acting came straight thru the Holy Spirit. He used Robert to bring many to believing in Jesus and hope he will accept before it is his turn to meet the real Jesus!
@thelandi1 Yes he did such a wonderful job playing Jesus! It is so sad to know that Robert is an athiest. I would have never known by how convincing he is as Jesus. I pray for him.
Although he must be i think 65 sth the face is not easy to recognise but the voice is like he is still 30 sth doing Jesus of Nazareth which of course is the only religious masterpiece most perfect ever made by Zefirelli and hsi voice is like it stayed the same after so many years amazing voice!
@OmarAndNoopur Yep.... best Jesus ever. And whoever the child actor was that played young Jesus in the same movie was amazing also. Both Robert Powell & that kid have incredible eyes.

@OmarAndNoopur No Jesus movie will ever surpass his work. Every time I think of Christ, I can't get his portrayal out of my head.
