Jun 27, 2021 · Take it from a Christian and a critic: The Chosen is as well made and entertaining as many network dramas. But its relative invisibility to secular audiences is no surprise.

Season Four begins with a flashback of a pregnant Mary visiting her older cousin, Elisabeth, who is also pregnant at the time with John the Baptist. Flashbacks to that time throughout the rest of the episode contrast with what’s happening in the present: Herodia’s daughter, Salome, training to dance before Herod at an upcoming banquet. Meanwhile, Z...
Much of the episode revolves around the ongoing grief that the disciples experience after John the Baptist’s execution. Andrew and Jesus talk about the nature of grief and how to process it. Both Quintus and the Jewish authorities continue to plot how best to deal with Jesus, as the crowds following him are becoming a liability to all of them. Jesu...
We begin, as the episode does, with a content warning for parents: “This episode contains violent images. Parental discretion strongly advised.” Quintus grows ragingly frustrated that the influx of “pilgrims” (followers of Jesus) to Capernaum is biting into his tax revenues—the one thing he cares about most to advance his career. He instructs his s...
In the aftermath of a tragic murder (in the season’s third episode), Jesus’ followers are in shock, grief and filled with questions. One disciple is particularly wrecked, and the rest are at a loss to know how to help. Peter feels helpless; he’s no rock in a crisis like this. Jesus advises Peter to “Simply be there with him.” Meanwhile, the crime l...
Jesus and His disciples begin their trek toward Jerusalem, but Christ wants to visit the home of Lazarus first—where His mother is living. Along the way, however, they encounter a couple of surprises. One is a rich care package from their old friend Joanna. The other is a band of Roman soldiers. And they demand, by Roman law, that Jesus and His fol...
The episode takes place during the eight-day celebration of Hanukkah: In the early stages, the mood is festive, and disciples give one another gifts. But it culminates with an attack on Jesus and His followers. Big James gets the worst of it: He’s essentially carried away from danger, his head badly bleeding. But others suffer injuries as well, inc...
Episode Seven finds Jesus, the disciples and His other followers traveling to Bethany for, they believe, the funeral of their friend Lazarus. Along the road, the disciples have paired off and make conversation en route to the tomb where their friend is buried. Once they reach Bethany, the desperately grieving Mary and Martha join the group, and the...
The episode begins with flashback to David triumphantly entering Jerusalem after a military victory. It’s nearly Passover. He and his second-born son, Daniel, go to get the spotless Passover lamb that will live with them for five days before being sacrificed. All of that, of course, is a foreshadowing of what’s going to transpire with Jesus and His...
The theme of Season 3’s finale centers around Psalm 77. The episode starts in 990 B.C., where we see David and one of his wives listening intently to the reading of the (at the time) new psalm. It’s one of the many psalms of anguish, written in a time of mourning and anger. Click hereto read the full psalm. Peter and Eden are both struggling with d...
Andrew and Philip return from their journey to try to fix things in Decapolis, but they’ve only made things worse. They taught Jesus’ Parable of the Great Banquet (Luke 14:15-24), but the parable caused a riot to break out between Jews and Gentiles. After hearing the story, Judas Iscariot gives a succinct summary: “The Jews understood you to mean t...
Feb 2, 2024 · The Chosen is surprisingly good as it explores the rising tensions of the era in Season 4. Read on for our review. 'The Chosen' returns, and it's just as dramatic as ever.
To cut straight to the point: The Chosen is far and away the best on-screen depiction of the life of Christ-either mini-series or movie. The writing and character development are exceptional. It's as captivating as The Passion, yet in so many ways more human and relatable.
