There was an interesting article a few years ago where they discovered the props in the desert where they made the film.

I had no idea the movie had a predecessor. Amazing what can happen when one embraces a new technology against all advice.

the 1950s versions of Ben Hur and The Ten Commandments
(with Charlton Heston in both)
are the best
the absolute best

“All right, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up.”

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Romans 14
Love Fulfills the Law

8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”[a] and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[b] 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Must be an Seventh Day Adventist. No matter what the Bible discussion they will always bring up the “Well what about the Sabbath!” Turn in to a radio program and it is like two parrots talking to each other.”SABBATH SABBATH SABBATH!”

ROMANS 14 entire chapter as does Galatians spells it out very well.

5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Like I said with the Adventists it is all “SABBATH SABBATH SABBATH!”
No room for Christ’s finished work on the Cross or his overcoming death on the Third Day.

Luke 24:New International Version
but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.
