Dallas Regrets This One Thing (Season Finale Reaction) 

Agreed. I instantly wanted to hate him, but remember it was written, and God loves him. So must we

@@nilarene2088 keep in mind, Judas KNEW what the priests were doing, AND he knew that Yeshuah is the Messiah. He thought that by doing what he was doing, Yeshuah would rise up to fight. It was only after he understood that they were in fact going to execute him, that he realized his mistake and even committed suicide as atonement. The spirit of Satan moved into him and told him to incite an uprising. It turned out to be a lie.

@@johnholder4208 I agree but don't think "atonement" so much as he couldn't think of breathing when he did that and it didn't go as planned. Jesus in John, he tells him to do what you must quickly. Might have confused him. But that action, to end your life, means he saw only blackness. So sad

DID JUDAS KNOW HE WOULD BE A BETRAYER?

Me too!

True! It is so Jesus! My favorite is when we meet Nathanial!

Can't say ... Each and every frame of scenes are so true to watch... Felt like having lived in Jesus times.. Do lovely - beyond words can say.... Each scene overtakes the other..... Chennai India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

I agree it was so beautiful in many ways.

Yeah it was beatiful

Never caught that. I love how you can watch the series a dozen times and still find something new, they do such a great job with all the nuances in characters and subjects.

Awesomely said....I'm 72, I was saved at 13 🙏❤️

I felt the same. At first I felt let down by the abrupt ending. Now I cry when I rewatch the episode.

Same here...

There is a danger, I say, of thinking of Jesus not as a man but an embodied angel. That is not what John meant by “the word made flash”. That does not mean that I know “what he was metaphysically, but that I know what he is not. He is a man; he is also God. God incarnate. That is not something even the angels know ny nature. I think God had to reveal Himself even to them, but when he did not even all they could accept Him. Those who accepted him. like Michael somehow “cast down” Lucifer who regarded" himself "as the highest, and perhaps as the Creator by worshiping THE True Lord”.

@@JRobbySh Yashua Messiah is not Yahweh. He wouldn't have prayed to himself. There are 3 entities, but only one God.🙏

I balled my eyes out in that scene as jesus spoke you just knew which disciple he had in mind. Ohhh the 😢 so so many. At the end I grabbed my bibleto read Mathew 5 I tried but my eyes wouldn't stop crying. Pitiful I know God forgive me

I cried during that scene. Its impact is so profound. I pray that Dallas et al continue to be lead by the Holy Spirit.

😮

It is the best portrayal of the beatitudes I've ever seen in my life! Totally love it!

Perfect comment 😇

May I redirect you, friend, that if you were to dig deeper into Scripture, you'll find that God intends for perfection to be available to us even here now on earth. Maybe not in every aspect, but most certainly in character. Because if you agree with me, that Christ, who was wholly human, yet fully God, was able to achieve perfection in character where we failed, in order to take our place at the cross; then you would agree also that the opportunities He had in overcoming are the same that we have access to. Therefore, perfection is possible, as long as we accept Him to pardon our past failures, and let Him help us to reproduce perfection in character afterward, yet still here, and now on earth to His soon return. Now, I'm aware that we may share different beliefs and doctrines in the faith, and we are at different walks, at different areas in our separate walk with our God, but do give God the chance to reveal things that may seem outrageous to you now, but will make sense if you seek Him more. Okay? Wishing the best for your pursuit of the truth that is found in Christ, and the advancement to your walk with the Lord. :)

@@bryanlimjinghng9274 Beautiful reply. I believe God is going to bring Heaven to Earth.

I would not change a thing. I have watched this series a dozen times. I never get bored with it. Thanks everyone. Merry Christmas.

Well said!

I loved the way the episode progressed. I think it was done just right.

I knew it was going to be one of the two guys, I watched the recaps and remembered when they said that there was a new person that would be a main character

I was one of the people in the RU-vid stream that said Judas in chat about as soon as he appeared. I felt bad afterward, it was a knee-jerk thing.

@@bardshousegaming8622 We forgive you! ;-)

Remember though, there were two Judas’.

Sometimes I wished these "unique to the show" lines were also in the Bible. 😁

@@clintonlagdameo1277 I love it when Matthew says to Jesus about why don't you just say that then kind of thing... I wish some of that kind of explanation really was in the Bible.

Yes, I really got the impression that Jesus was using this as a teaching moment for Matthew too. And it helped to make Matthew a little less of an outsider within the group as well.

AND because Jesus was the perfect God-Man, I feel certain He had perfect understanding and perfect thoughts, but He had also submitted Himself to the human experience, so I’m sure He gave much prayer and much thought to everything He said and did…..just like He asks us to do!

Like with Simon Z. He doesn’t *need* Matthew. But He wants *all* His people to be involved in the healing of the world.

Andrea Newell Yes!

Yeah thats my take too that his only friend leads him astray

@@thegamerwoman5320I don't think we will know the real Judas this side of the world. He was demonized too long. I hope Dallas tries to show for 2 years he was a friend, was doing miracles with them, eating/sleeping with them etc. He wasn't evil to the core.

I don't think Judas let the businessman lead him astray. Just like Matthew, Judas wanted a more fluent lifestyle, he was already there! Just like in today's society, money & greed can give people the lifestyle they want but don't need. I truly believe that Judas believed in Jesus, wanted to follow Him and the evil one didn't turn Judas till later. Judas never gave up his want for what money could do especially holding the ministries purse, kept him attached to money. At least Matthew had no regrets of leaving everything. What an experience we are going to have when we go home and have everything shown to us. WOW, and I do have a lot if questions to ask 😊😮

@@michellepriore5610 But Judas wasn't greedy, he wanted Jews to have control of the Romans with Jesus's help (like many) but he threw away the money. He loved Jesus so much he killed himself when he could have gone away with money and started over. That love is hard to imagine. I can't breath knowing what I did. He didn't understand it didn't matter. Jesus wasn't NOT going with them. Peter, didn't kill himself, didn't say sorry until Jesus came to him. I pray Judas did when Jesus visited the dead before after he rose. What a wonderful gift to see.

@@deb9806 I can't imagine Judas loving Jesus so much as the rest of the disciples since he was the one to turn Jesus over for money. There's that word again money, it is the root of all evil isn't it? Peter denied knowing Jesus 3 times but Judas turning Jesus over to His haters for money seems like greed not complete love, at least in my way of thinking. I think Judas killed himself because of guilt and afraid he would be hunted down. He didn't love Jesus that much if he could betray Him, that's not love. That's putting money and self gain before the Lord. Like I said before I have a lot of questions when I get home!! Isn't it gonna be amazingly awesome to know all the answers to the questions we have???

@@januaryneige2889 I know right. It makes us really feel like we are a part of the show. I bet that some future Christians cinematographers are being inspired with every video he releases. This is such a dramatic change from what Hollywood does and I love it!

@@alexfoote7475 found out that Hollywood was hiding stuff, huh.......

appreciate that!

@@TheChosenSeries Dallas will Season 3 be released in 2022? Because I FELL in LOVE with the show starting with Season 2.

I agree, and I think it also "should" help keep people grounded in the fact that it is widely recognized by everyone on the project and regularly shouted from the rooftops that this IS a TV series and not meant to replace the bible itself. The intent is that it makes people want to read and discover the Bible on their own and dive deeper. It sure has inspired me to learn more. I put "should" in quotes because despite that regular discussion, people will still be haters and make accusations. Ignore those criticisms Dallas and crew. You are doing God's work!!! Praying for every soul involved in the project no matter how small. 🙏🙏🙏

That's how I saw it too. Walking Matthew through the concepts for him to gain understanding.

Yes! I saw it as a mentoring/discipling/teaching opportunity as well as demonstrating that Jesus valued Matthew and was willing to spend extended time with him.

@@franchescawetter8423 exactly!

@@donnapearson466 Exactly right.

I feel like Jesus did however needed someone to write it down for him but also to help Matthew learn, I did feel a bit intimitdated by Jesus when he was teaching, I dont know why

I’m a 55 yr old tough guy Harley rider and I cry every episode, a lot

As John the Baptizer said to Jesus. " I thought it was a pretty good line". Loved it!

@@karenreynolds349 I’ll miss him on the show. I loved everything he did and said

I cry every episode. Can't not cry.

@@annemarie748 I know, right? Last night I went to dinner with a friend and was telling her about the series. I tried to describe some of my favorite scenes, but started crying each time. I tried to explain to her that my tears were happy tears, but hard to explain.

me too!!

@@skyemanion947 Me too!

Hi Sherry how are you doing?

That is beautiful. I would caution, however, make scripture your haven, and the Chosen, your fun.

@@robertballard8981 no problem. I do.

I envy you that you got to meet the actors and be on the set 😍

How is Matthew autistic? Is he portrayed that way in the Book of Matthew?

great insight!

Hi Kimberly how are you doing?

Yes! For me, too!

Agree.. even Jesus knew who is Judas and his Betrayal , but he washed his feet as the others 30 silver coin were his evil chosen destiny

I love that term Chosenites!

And I loved the "personalized beatitude" that caused Matthew to sniffle then smile 😃.

Anyone who says "Mormons and Christians love the same Jesus" is NOT listening to God. Anyone who says it was "a great honor and an amazing opportunity" to meet the "pope" is NOT listening to God. Anyone who portrays a "Jesus" who is directionally challenged (gets lost easily) to introduce humor and make Jesus "more human" is NOT listening to God and is NOT making wise decisions.

Yes..me too...I love this show and the precious message it is relaying to the world...but..I thought that Dallas regretted not showing the Sermon on the Mount in stead of building up it and then STOPPED ..no sermon!! That was what I was looking forward to SO MUCH! I wanted and needed that connection...otherwise I love this show...I think millions of people are waiting for this sermon..please give it to us in Season 3...I think alot of people feel as I do and we actually NEED to hear this sermon...thkx for listening...

@@katherineleonowski7289 Of course the new season opens with the sermon. It was a big shock to have NO SERMON at the end of the last season, I agree.

@@yovni HOWEVER, the portrayal of the beatitudes as exemplified individually by the disciples impacted me powerfully, so I am satisfied with it.

@@katherineleonowski7289 As Dallas says in this video…he DID show the sermon.

@@TheChosenSeries Of course, he did say he showed at least the Beatitudes, and we can understand that point of view, but the fact that he had to point it out (for a number of people) is telling. Since more than one person experienced a sense of shock about it, and even, in this case, a sense of profound and deeply-felt disappointment, I myself-as an onlooker-wished that @The Chosen had been able to validate or empathize with the personal and emotional sense of loss expressed. I’m trusting that Jesus, our living Lord, will reveal Himself in this instance to personally bring comfort to this person and meet whatever is needed-far beyond what a mere portrayal can be expected to do. Truly, “no one understands like Jesus; He’s a friend beyond compare.” We can meet Him at the throne of mercy, He is waiting for each one of us there. ❤️

A bigger give away was when Judas said that he wanted his life and actions to resonate for all time. How many other characters have had such an impact on our understanding of life and have become so synonymous with one type of action. Therein is a warning for us all, and it is terrifying, for if Jesus is just in our outward appearance and not in our hearts, we too can fall just like him. We all think that we are nice people and would never do anything so hideous as betrayal, until we do. The lesson that Judas couldn't learn is that Jesus came to forgive him. This character and his development may be a wake up call for many decent and good people who have been under the gospel message for a lifetime but who have never come to love Jesus unto salvation. And for those who love Jesus with all of our heart to come to Him when we mess up.

I too loved the foreshadowing. I don't think this scene was a mistake at all. But then I'm not a fan of surprise parties either. So I know what Dallas is saying that it might have spoiled the surprise, but I love the foreshadowing quality of it more than the surprise aspect it could have held.

That was my big hint, too!

Hi Jeannie how are you doing?

Hi Betty how are you doing?

I admire you for being able to appreciate the show for what it is even when there are parts of it you might wish different. There are sour notes in the series for me, here and there, too. Even Dallas isn’t completely satisfied with every choice he makes in retrospect. And that’s good, in my opinion. If any of us start to think to expect perfection of this show, it would suggest that we have forgotten that only God is perfect. And frankly, when the show pulls me out of my expectations, it often helps me to examine what those expectations are founded on. Is it scripture? Historical knowledge that I fully grasp from authoritative sources? Or the social and personal interpretations that I came up with myself, or that teachers I respect have passed on to me? If they have in fact wandered from the best scriptural interpretations or the most likely historical/cultural reconstruction, are there thematic or aesthetic reasons for those choices? And finally, even if I just can’t get past my reaction to some elements, or if there are real blunders that worry me, it’s helpful to remember that there are lots of things that the show does well, that it is putting out a very valuable message, and that God has forgiven me for so much, I can live with disciples having plenty of money for paper and colorful sashes when just a few episodes ago they had no food. 🙄 It is, after all, a story told by fallible human beings however committed.

Well said Andrea. He will know if we are one of His by the love we have for one another. GOD BLESS
