The portrayal of Jesus weeping in The Garden of Gethsemane
I just finished season 5 last night and wow… I’ve never seen a show like this before and I’m really excited for the next two seasons. The way they portrayed Jesus weeping in the Garden of Gethsemane was so visceral and showed us how, despite all the miracles and power he has and the praise he got from his disciples, Jesus is also a human, much like the rest of us. I remember thinking “I’ve definitely wept and prayed the same way that Jesus did in that garden” while watching that scene. Jonathan Roumie is an excellent actor. The writing and the cinematography are incredible. I love this show for its honest and real depiction of Jesus and his disciples and I definitely didn’t expect the whirlwind of emotions I’d experience when I started off this show.
