I thought this was EXCELLENT!!!!! To be able to make the story of the bible in such a small amount of time allotted (5 parts) it was absolutely excellent! The special effects made it SO realistic,the story line loosely true to the "Word" (remember trying to keep a thread through all these stories and through the total bible "must" have been difficult at best). The actors who played these characters did a beautiful job. The only negative i can say is that it wasn't a longer series than it was. Thank you so much for the recounting of the Bible in this entertainment industry fashion and for creating this documentary.
