Blessings to all Freepers

Here is the Christmas story in 5 minutes. The opening scenes of Ben Hur (1959). The sounding of the shofar at the end leads into the stirring opening credits which can be found elsewhere on youtube.

Thank you for that.

Ben Hur it’s my absolute most favorite film of all time.
It is also the very best “Jesus movie” ever, IMO.

NOT coincidentally, it arose from a book entitled “Ben Hur: A Tale of The Christ.”

It’s a better Easter film than a Christmas one, but that first series does meet the need of this hour.
