• Religious Figures of the Bible | DVD | (24/10/2011) from £12.98   |  Saving you £2.01 (13.40%)   |  RRP £14.99

  As the most famous document in the world the Bible is filled with figures we are familiar with. Here for the first time HISTORY has brought together six programmes recalling some of the best-known stories in the Good Book. We start at the beginning with the story of Adam and Eve. This simple story is many things: it is a creation story a morality play a love story a story of betrayal. Its influence over the dynamics between men and women sex and marriage has been powerful and undeniable. All in all the story of Adam and Eve is but a reflection of our own story and it continues to capture and mirror our deepest hopes and fears. Also included in this fascinating collection: the story of Solomon and Sheba whose love would go down in history as one of the most enduring love stories of all-time; the tale of Moses and how the Ten Commandments became central to the whole of Western civilisation; and the stories of both Mary of Nazareth and Mary Magdalene. Mary of Nazareth is perhaps the most important woman in history – hailed as the Blessed Virgin Mother of God Queen of Heaven and Madonna – while Mary Magdalene was believed to be a prostitute who repented and became a devoted disciple of Jesus. However she has since has been revealed as a woman of wealth whose financial support was crucial to the survival of early Christianity. Of course no collection of religious figures would be complete without the story of Jesus. His words and deeds would go on to become a moral cornerstone for the entire world. For over 2000 years his life has continued to inspire transfix perplex. His words are still quoted his birth and death reenacted his miracles prayed for his wisdom sought. Perhaps more has been written about this one man than anyone else in recorded history.
