Charlton Heston Presents the Bible is a beautiful presentation of the great Academy Award winning actor's insight and passion as he delivers four prominent stories of the Bible: "Genesis," the story of the origins of the universe and man begins this odyssey and also recounts the story of Adam and Eve. "The Story of Moses" dramatizes the defiance of Pharaoh and hails Moses' determination to take the Jews to freedom and their new home. "Jesus of Nazareth" lets you peek into the manger where Jesus was born and walk with Him throughout his ministry. "The Passion" reverently concludes the life of Jesus from the Last Supper through his crucifixion and resurrection.

As an accomplished veteran actor, Heston's skill and powerful performance dramatizes the events and characters of these stories as possibly no one else can. The scenes are resplendent with magnificent and boundless scenery that make you feel as if you're caravaning together with "Chuck," his wife, son and crew. Biblical and historical scenes invite you to relive events as you travel through key sites in the Holy Land. Great works of art and historical comments expand the artistry of this presentation and make it a delightful viewing experience for the whole family.

Heston admits that he is not a scholar, but only a storyteller who wants to make these stories a vivid experience and create a deeper appreciation for the Bible. His passion for this adventure was born when he played the part of Moses in The Ten Commandments, and his dream to revisit the Holy Land and make these stories "come alive" is the focus of this odyssey. Having performed many productions relating these great stories of the Bible, his artistry is unparalleled and filled with emotion and drama.

Special features of Charlton Heston Presents the Bible only consist of a featurette called "Behind the Scenes in the Holy Land," which is presented after each entitled presentation on each disc. This is an account of Heston's passion, with comments on direction, production and presentation of the film.

I was disappointed in the fact that subtitles were not included for greater enhancement of the viewing, however I thought this film was exceptional and gave me an awesome appreciation of the acting skill and of the actor, himself, Charlton Heston.
