Back of Cover
David, poet and musician. The simple shepherd chosen by God. The boy who defeated the giant Goliath and the man who defeated great armies. David, King of Israel.
Leonard Nimoy and Jonathan Pryce lead a talented cast in this vivid retelling of one of the Bible's most powerful stories. Brave warrior David (Nathaniel Parker) leads his troops in battle against Israel's enemies and, tragically, against his own son.
The film's human dimension is as vital as the combat: David's rivalry with King Saul, his bond of friendship with Jonathan, and his illicit passion for the beautiful (and married) Bathsheba (Sheryl Lee) fill the screen with emotion.
When David begs to know why he must suffer, the answer comes: "Perhaps it is those who God loves the most...that he punishes the most severly."
Viewer discretion is advised.

Exceptional depiction true to the Word Mar 14, 2007
The realism of the dramatization of the chapters of His Word in these movies is fantastic. It allows one to visually realize the lives and actions of the Bible that so many read and hear about but have trouble realting to in our time of modern convinences.
Should be a must have collection in the home of every believer.
excellent Mar 10, 2007
I enjoyed this movie so much that I watch it at least twice a month, everyone who watches it with me wants to buy one. It is so true to the bible its unbelivable. The cast is wonderful and so true to the bibical days. I would recommend everyone to get this movie. I also purchased the bible collection which I also highly give it 5 stars. Excellent, excellent.
Very Realistic Mar 7, 2007
Very well done. The acting was excellent in all the movies. For example, Moses is one whom I can relate to as an ordinary man. Unlike the great Ten Commandments with Charlston Heston, it is not dramatic showing Moses as a hero, but a simple man called by God to deliver the Israelites.
I really enjoyed Abraham and his character. Joseph made me cry at the end with his humility and forgiveness. Every movie made me read the stories in the Bible and has definitely helped motivate my interest in the Old Testament books.
Great Depiction Feb 20, 2007
I believe the movie of David is true to depiction. As many know..if you want to be sure you are viewing or reading something accurate always do your background research before taking anything at face value immediately. David has always been since I could remember the most memorable and my favorite character by far in the bible. This movie to me gives a great account of the shepherd boy's life at an early age until his youngest son Solomon was to inherit the kingdom of Israel after David. It was truly an awesome film and I would recommend it to anyone who is watching to learn and grow. After watching this movie, I would strongly recommend reading 1 and 2 Samuels and the book of Psalms to know more of King David and how he became one of the greatest kings of Israel to humble himself before GOD after recognizing his sin and repenting to becoming that man after GOD's own heart. Be prepared to be touched by this depiction.
