[Revelation4teensix]

You see Jesus' Divinity flashing through His Humanity this is remarkable!!!!

[taxpayinghorse]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS ON HERE. YOU HAVE DONE A WONDERFUL THING!

[heartofzorro]

I love to see Jesus writing on the sand. On Gibson's movie i think He draws a line and writes SP (Sin Pecatum). And on De Mille's movie gives the idea of an universal judge that knows everything. Well done. How can you judge if yourself are unclean??

[ThankyouJESUS316]

You are right, no one knows what Jesus really wrote, but I love DM's rendention also, I never looked at it from that point of view. Amazing movie! Passion of the Christ was good but this movie is beyond great!

[sillygrl23]

That was great....correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think they ever mentioned in the bible what the symbol is that Jesus actually wrote into the sand but I love De Mille's rendition of that scene because it was like they were thinking "Oh crap how did he know I did that?!!?!?" and it gets them freaked out enough to leave
