end scene aftermath of crucifixion charlton heston B hur

Immediately after Christ's death, Miriam and Tirzah are healed by a miracle (Christ's blood from the Crucifixion washes into the cave where the women are hiding and touches them), as are Judah's heart and soul. He returns to his home and tells Esther that as he heard Jesus talk of forgiveness while on the cross, "I felt His voice take the sword out of my hand." The film, which began with the Magi visiting the infant Jesus, ends with the empty crosses of Calvary in the background and a shepherd and his flock (a prominent Judeo-Christian symbol) in the foreground.

@mrsmagloo some kill their enemy in hate. Some kill in love of their country and God

"I felt his voice take the sword of his hand." So why do people still kill in the name of GOD?

" . . .felt his voice take the sword out of my hand." People get the wrong idea thinking, 'if my loved ones were restored later, I'd stop feeling so angry too.' God had to stand by and watch His Son die. He knows what grief is too. He went through it. Jesus went to his death willingly so that even when we lose those we can't bear to be without, when we die, the first thing God can tell us is: "Your loved ones are, over there." Belief is NOT to escape punishment later. It's to cope with pain now.
