The montage includes scenes from several episodes in the New Testament half of the series, including the Nativity, Jesus' Life and Passion, and Paul:

That looks like a slick ad (pretty people, slow-motion, music, emotions) ... Oh, and Jesus has great hair. But the Baptist's rasta hair is cooler :D

Wow... John the Baptist looks Rasta!

The scenes from the Passion are almost a shot for shot remake of The Passion of the Christ aren't they?

Mark Goodacre said...

Some very striking similarities, no question. It evoked Passion of the Christ for me instantly.

Yes, I did notice that they had deliberately imitated TPoTC for at least three of the passion scenes: Mary meeting Jesus, Mary at Jesus' feet, and I think even the Pieta scene. BTW I also noticed that the scene where Jesus walking through the door (3:38) somewhat evokes the ascension from the 1999 Jesus film.
