Season 4 Finale of The Chosen! | Messianic Initial Response 

I loved the way the opening scene had the man and Daniel anointing the lamb with oil, and then the parallel with Mary anointing Jesus's feet. The Lamb of God.

Jonathan Roumie's believability as Yeshua has really been impactful throughout the Seasons...

I did like Mary stepping up to the tomb when everyone was gone…foreshadowing her going to Yeshua’s tomb. So good.

The thing my husband brought out from the story is Lazarus was totally covered from head to toe! How could he know how to get out of the tomb without hitting walls etc? HE CAME OUT BECAUSE HE COULD HEAR JESUS VOICE! JESUS VOICE GAVE HIM THE DIRECTION!!

Did y'all miss Matthew's joke? "You want us to borrow a burro?" Z and Jesus loooked at each other and grinned.

Jesus weeping actually shook me because I’ve read it in John 11:35 but when it’s portrayed on the screen it hit different for me. Made me realize God cries too.

The time and patience the creators took to prep for Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem at the end of Ep 8 was so powerful! Season 5 is going to be so impactful!👍🏽

The oil on the Lamb parallel was so emotional!

That’s what the whole The Chosen series has done for me: It has made the Bible come alive - from black and white to color! High def color!!

I wasn't surprised when Simon the zealot was the first one to step up to roll the stone. He's always seemed to be the strongest!

I was crying and sobbing for almost the entire time of E7. So many thoughts from Scripture flooded my mind. Masterful work/ministry by The Chosen team.

I agree with you. I think Atticus will be the Roman at the foot of the cross that comes to the realization that Jesus is truly the Son of God.

I had always understood the anointing of Jesus' feet as preparing him for burial, but paralleling it to the anointing of the passover lamb's feet hit deep. I watched the finale last night and have been randomly thinking about it and tearing up all day. Little awkward at work. 😅 Did anyone else notice that the stable hand that Z and Matthew ran into was hanging out at the back of the Lazarus' resurection crowd trying to hide his face and looking a little suspicious. The whole time I was thinking "Who are you and what are you up too?" Then he showed up at the stable and I knew. "You want us to borrow a burro?" 😂 I love Matthew.

I loved and appreciated how Mary tarried behind, walking up to, and looking in the tomb. That is what my personality would of done. I also loved how before the show started, Dallas explained how Jesus was frustrated because His Apostles were not understanding. Dallas then said, "Lean into the words of Jesus. Focus on what He says!" Awe.....such a powerful show! I got home, and immediately opened my Bible to re-read the beautiful red words of Jesus. ❤️

Just got home from watching the season finale. Mary's scene totally melted my heart for the Lord. When I saw that actress introduced in season 3, I knew she was going to portray this scene wonderfully. I knew she was the actress for the roll. Loved the last shot of Jesus ridding the colt powerfully, with authority and proudly. He is God after all.❤

My husband and I have enjoyed the time to go to the theaters which we don’t do and cry and finish scripture during this season. For that I give Yahuah Tseva’oth the honor and glory for allowing families / households the opportunity to travel to and from the establishments in peace. What really caught my attention these episodes was mother Mary and her faithfulness and stillness watching the Messiah and the first fruit of her loins.. powerful and well played by the actress! The chosen is beloved due to imagination and portraying of cultural context. ❤YAH all Shalom Shalom

Saw season 4 in the theater and it was wonderful on the big screen. Beautifully cinematic and yet intimate in it's telling. As a born and raised Catholic the series came to life for me in a way I'd never thought possible. Will now read scripture! Thanks to all, from inception to conclusion. Blessings.

Saw it two nights ago. Wow, so good. Really like the way this is unfolding. Are we losing Shmuel again? Ugh, just like Yeshua said to Nicodemus, "you came so close."

I loved when Matthew said, we're gunna borrow a burro 😂 so much emotions throughout these last episodes I can't wait to see what comes next

I’m so glad you mentioned how they portrayed the disciples getting the colt. I loved how they played up the drama of that scene, connected it to Zechariah, and followed up with the guy running around telling everyone Jesus was coming. The whole buildup to the Triumphal entry was great. There were several parts like this where the writers made connections or juxtaposed characters that enhanced the drama of the scene. Like having Shmuel at the anointing at Bethany which resulted in him turning away from Jesus, or how Mary goes to purchase oil with the money Lazarus left out of gratitude for what Jesus did (I never thought of that!), or of course how the raising of Lazarus scene foreshadows Jesus’ own resurrection. Bravo to the writers.

Looking forward to watching Season 4, and even more so, watching the episides with Grafted. You bring so much more into the episodes. GOD BLESS YOU AT GRAFTED

I'm just like Thomas. I can see Him turn water to wine...heal the leper...feed the 5,000...walk on water and raise the dead...and I still focus on my self. Romans 7:24-25

I think Quintus will be the the soldier who will say "Truly this man was the Son of God".

I loved the juxtaposition of the triumphal entry with that of King David wearing his Lion of Judah armor entering the city similarly

Just got back from watching, FANTASTIC!!

Episodes 7 & 8 were phenomenally done. From the 'What's going on here, who is this?' opening for E7 to the final frame of E8 ... masterfully written and presented. The believability of the 'extra biblical' interactions have really helped me connect with the humanity of not just Yeshua, but all the characters. I'm SO looking forward to your deeper discussions for each episode. Sooooon!

You guys are awesome.. Thank you

There were so many great moments in these last two episodes!

My favorite extra biblical part was when the apostles referred to Lazarus as 'Laz' informal probably didn't happen but...

Thanks so much Sam and Dr. Tom for your reviews; always so good. Saw 7 and 8 last night and going tomorrow too. I heard a comment from someone about how good Joey's performance was and I agree, wow he did an amazing job portraying Thomas's frustration! Looking forward to your review of the entire season. God Bless!

Love watching you guys!

Such amazing ending. Loved Joanna's escape!

I feel ep 7 is the best of the series to date. I shed a few tears during that one. So real with how the disciples were struggling with everything that was going on.

I've heard that season 5 is Holy week, season 6 is the crucifixion and season 7 is the resurrection

It's so poignant to see the folks in Capernaum happily packing up for Jerusalem, having no idea what awaits them. I think we can all relate to that.

An interview Dallas did recently, he said Season 5 will be the 5 days of Holy Week. Season 6 crucifixion, which I cannot imagine doing an entire season. Season 7 will be the aftermath.

i came on late, but my understanding is that Season 5 is all Holy Week, Season 6 is all crucifixion and Season 7 is resurrection

I was thinking the same thing about Atticus being the soldier at the cross. :D

Thank you guys for your take on Season Four. I cannot get to the Theatre to see it. Hoping to find a church near me that’s showing it. Blessings💕✝️🙏🏼

Protection over all.

i dont go to theater any more.i have to wait to see it on prime video,love you two

In the episode, the guy who owned the colt's name was Zechariah.

When old Matthew and old Mary meet, they mention that Paul has been writing letters to Colossians! Perhaps the later seasons will introduce Paul?

Thank you for doing these reviews immediately. I’m always itching to watch something/talk about the episode afterwards.

Anointing the feet of Jesus with perfume (an oil)......anointing the feet of the year old lamb....and He lived with us for five days before the Sacrifice.....

In the gospels there were two different women who did this. The one who broke the box with expensive perfume and oils, the one we were to remember is not Mary of Bethany. If anything she is unnamed. Just listed as a woman who was a sinner. This is in Luke and happened at Simon the Pharisee's house. Mary of Bethany anointed his feet in John 12. But this was a separate occasion and different, it was in Bethany after Jesus had raised Lazarus.

The finale made me frustrated that I have to wait a whole year for season 5. I never wanted the episode to end. Kathleen

Your exitement is child-like which is how one can see your love for Jesus and how you are stirred up for him. ❤

Loved these two episodes! ❤️ Loved seeing these Bible events come to life on film. The scenes in Bethany with Lazarus, Mary, and Martha and Lazarus quoting Isaiah. Also loved seeing many of the actors like Atticus and Joanna again. This is so cool !!!

I was looking forward to your reaction to Episode 7. :)

I like how each disciple is shown at the end of episode 8. I could identify with every one of them and what they were feeling.

I wonder if Thomas burying the Sundial was not only his way of finally saying goodbye to Ramah but also foreshadowing the coming burial of The Light of the World ?

Loved this season. Loved all the seasons. Very biblical plus a good dose of humor. I’m thinking there won’t be much humor in the next seasons. Great filming and writing.

All shame is not toxic, right?! PREACH! So true and no one ever wants to say it.

I perceived Lazarus as raised from the dead, and brought back to this life, but he is not a resurrection in the sense that he will die again, and then raised on the last day by Jesus resurrection.

I saw it this afternoon. Wow, the episodes get better and better! Can't imagine what the next 3 season will bring!

I cried so much for these last two episodes. Every episode was so well done - written, acted and the music. Can’t wait to see them again on the app to really take in all of it.

Watched tonight, was so good. Full body chills. They did such a great job, seems so real.

I love your commentaries!! Season 4 episodes 7 & 8 left me speechless!! So glad you were giving us the Biblical addresses for events!!! Can’t wait for your long version analysis!!!!❤️ God bless you both!!!

Love watching you guys. Can’t wait to see longer Grafted reaction videos from this season of the Chosen.

I CAN’T WAIT to watch the episodes with the 2 of you!! I’m seeing them in theaters, but I always watch them several times again. Especially before a new season drops. Watching them with the 2 of you is just the best!! Thank you guys!!

The end had my heart go wham!!

Looks likw Schmuel went back to the sark side after coming so close to following Jesus.

I just came home from the theatre watching E6 & E7. Thank you for your reviews I agree, awesome! I also liked King David. This whole season 4 has been GREAT! The Chosen is appropriate for such a time as this in the World ✝

And just to think…. They are still “just words on a scroll “…. 🙏🏽

Felt so sad for Shmuel

Love you guys, the way you talk everything out...and explain it so I can understand what the Bible is really saying...I've read the Bible, but I still don't understand alot of it. I really don't know how to begin to even learn how...all I know is that Jesus came and died for all of us, his death alone covers our sins and we are saved by the mercy and grace of our lord...

You missed to talked about how Jesus Wept! 😅 i will wait for your next reaction then 😁

I'm going tomorrow afternoon! Before Sabbath! I've read the book,.. so.. okay okay.. I like spoilers! 😂 love y'alls breakdowns! ❤

Does anyone know who the mysterious onlooker at the tomb of Lazarus was?

When it comes to the shame thing, especially with what I struggle with, I have to view it as guilt vs. shame. That helps me to distinguish conviction vs toxic shame which drags me down sometimes even farther in that spiral and into more sin. That scene was awesome and was one of my favorites of the whole season!

Just got back from seeing season finale tonight as well. Wow! I cried a lot! Suggestion , tissues when you go!😢❤️‍🔥😭

Did Jesus use the bridle that Joseph gave him??

Thank you for cutting off that fan (or whatever it was!) at 15:53. With earbuds, it was driving me nuts!!!! 🤪😂 Love this review, can't wait for deep dives as the episodes release! Maranatha! ❤

The scent of that spikenard would still be on Jesus as He enters triumphantly into Jerusalem, maybe even as He was standing before Pilate, being scourged and dying on the cross.

The last three seasons are about the paths of THE CHOSEN DISCIPLES.

When Jesus told the disciples to get the colt 🐴my heart shattered. 💔 I think I will be crying through most of seasons 5 and 6. 😭

Love your in depth discussions and insight. Looking forward to the episode by episode breakdown. ❤️ Thanks for being a reflector of the true Light.🙏

I read that when a king road into a city on a horse he was coming as a Conquerer and if he is riding a donkey he is coming in peace.

I agree with you about Atticus being that soldier at the cross ❤

Love that shirt tom

Episodes 7 and 8 are epic! Enjoyed your insights. Glad I found you guys on RU-vid.

Yes, they all smelled his death initially so I’m sure that was sensory overload that added to the shock of him suddenly walking towards them.

8:07 The man of sorrows.

Can’t wait till it’s live-streamed ❤️

It was so good! The beloved Bible stories , the incredible acting . Love it 🩵

I love your channel ! Thank you 🙏

So great😂

I wonder if Ramah will be raised with the Saints.

In episode 7. Anyone know who the hooded guy is hanging behind the crowd at Lazarus’s raising? Have we seen him before? Do we see him again?

Thanks for the review. In Taiwan, we don't have any episodes in the theaters so we have to wait for the APP. I'm looking forward to seeing them and your further commentary on them.

Atticus is no longer hungry because he has had the food that truly satisfies... the word of God.

Looking forward to seeing it this weekend

I totally agree that Atticus will be the Roman at the crucifixion!!

Was it part of the preparation of the sacrifical lamb to annoint the legs and feet? The chosen shows King David doing that and Laz was asked if he had annointed his lamb to bring it in and then of course it shows Mary annointing the feet of Jesus. Also, there were 2 confirmations for the lamb, annointing the feet and and then confirming the perfect lamb 2 days before sacrificing and the comparison to Jesus' annointing his feet and Pilot confirming "I see nothing wrong this man has done" before he is sacrificed. One more question. Why am i at the point of tears and so broken hearted thinking about this? God is so incredibly detailed in getting his " point" across to be so crystal clear. he doesn't miss anything.

I am sure that many people would already know this, the " grave clothes is a " prayer shall " without the " tzitzit " or fringes 🛐🔎✍️📜❤️🔍👂🗣️👣

You're missing something in your subjecture of Atticus as the centurion at the cross---you forget that QUINTUS was demoted. What do you think he was demoted to--and how else would you get Quintus out of Galilee except to transfer him to Jerusalem!!!

Hi Grafted guys! I love you & appreciate your comments & info you share Btw Dallas said Season 5 will be Holy Week, Season 6 the crucifixion & the would finish with Season 7 It will be interesting

Guys, this Livestream was so awesome!! Here in Mexico 🇲🇽 we just watched only episodes 1 & 2; so, it is a long wait ahead. But anyway it is so cool to hear you 🎉 Thank you, and God bless.

I have been watching grafted for a few years now, and I enjoy it very much. I signed up for your college course a couple of years ago, but my schedule at the time didn’t work to watch it and participate. I understand I always will have all of that. I am not sure where to find it on my phone, and I can’t find your email 😅address. I know I saw it, but I can’t find it now. I don’t want to put personal information on a message.
