Jesus (1979) - Scene Guide

As I reviewed and discussed a few other articles about Jesus (1979) earlier this week, I thought I would finish off by posting the scene guide to the film.

A Few Notes
1 - For a relatively short run time, this film packs in a lot large number of incidents, often by cutting parts within each story as well as excluding certain episodes. However, there is also very little time spent on developing the character of anyone but Jesus, and even his character is barely explored in the way that most films tend to examine their protagonists.

2 - The political sections of Luke's gospel are largely expunged, in particular the more challenging verses to the rich and powerful such as the reverse beatitudes (Luke 6:23-26), sharing with those who are without (Luke 3:10-14), the six woes Luke 11:37-54). It also excludes the passage where a demonstration of Jesus's power yields only a meagre respose (The Ten Lepers of chapter 17), as well as awkward to explain passages such as the Shrewd manager of Luke 16), and the mini-apocalypse of chapter 21.

3 - On the other hand, it is also the only Jesus film to include certain incidents such as Zaccheus, The Widow's Mite, and the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, and the Parable of the Vineyard / Wicked Tenants.
