Our Bible consultants discuss our most controversial moment

Only a handful of seconds, this moment caused more controversy than any moment in The Chosen. Would Jesus need to prepare a sermon? Isn’t he God? What does being God and man look like? Our three Bible consultants (Dr. Doug Huffman, Rabbi Jason Sobel, and Bishop Robert Barron) chat with Dallas about all of it, including the verses regarding our choice, in this first excerpt from our Bible roundtables.

I hope Bishop Barron is given some more times to comment on the show with less interruption in the future. Bringing him in was a tremendous move guys. Independently of whether you're a protestant or a catholic, and leaving aside whatever theological disagreements we have, learning from him is a great gift.

[delilahgarcia]

This is why the Church is needed. 2000 years of study and commentary to learn from and not just our own interpretation. Their inquiries about Jesus have already been studied, thought out, prayed about, and written about. Pride always tells us that our thoughts and revelations are the first of its kind and that our interpretation makes the most sense. Humility learns from the wise.

I don't know if folks fully appreciate these talks. A Catholic, A Jewish believer, and Protestants talking about Jesus in depth is truly extraordinary.

Thank you for bringing Bishop Barron for the round table.... AMAZING!!!!

[christinasilby]

Thank you so much for bringing Bishop Barron into the bible consultants team. 🙏

[krizilloo]

It’s wonderful to see Bishop Barron participating!

[patvonfeldt]

I'm so impressed by the Rabbi who knows & understands more about Jesus' incarnation than most Christians!! Bishop Barron is the best of the Catholic prelates you could have on these panels! Good for you The Chosen Team.. you're getting it right! 🙏

We love Bishop Barron - fans from the Philippines. Thank you Dallas for having him as guest

[broeske]

Bishop Barron's humility shines as he is interrupted more than once after Dallas explicitly asks Bishop for his Theological perspective. I would appreciate hearing the whole discussion.

WOW! Absolutely enjoyed watching the commentaries. The Chosen is a BLESSING to so many! One disappointment that I have watching the commentaries, is that Bishop Barron who many have watched both Catholics and non Catholics, is interrupted and is not allowed to finish giving his thoughts on the topic. Bishop Barron is a Spirit lead man, who is scholarly, a theologian, a philosopher and is a Christian apologetic... and he speaks multiple languages as well. Bishop Barron offers such a rich depth to the conversation, please respect his time when he is speaking and allow him to finish without interruptions. Thank you.

As I don't take this series, well done and anointed as it is, as the Gospel, I don't have any conflict with how the writers portray things unknown, i.e. things not in scripture. This show has consistently made me, and probably literal millions of others, think more deeply about Jesus and the Word of God. That's a WIN.

PLEASE DO A WHOLE PODCAST WITH BISHOP ROBERT BARRON!

[shonpinto]

It’s great to see Bishop Barron being invited ! There is so much to learn from him . His podcasts with Jordan Peterson are pure gold .

[crisnuevo]

So nice to see the consultants discussing these together. Bishop Barron explains complex things so well. It’s always humbling to realise that these issues are also not new, and the church has been discussing these in the past 2000 years.

[randumgaming]

I do genuinely wish we got more uninterrupted input from Bishop Barron. I get a lot of what he says requires explanation for most people, but he comes from an incredibly intense and intelligent background and his input here seemed to be the one most talked over or cut short.

[mazikode]

Bishop Baron..far out smarts everyon here..so above in wisdom and intellect.

[Vereglez-dz]

Well done Bishop Barron ❤️ Glory to God!

[icejunki]

I have loved how this entire project unites all Christians across the globe. Jesus is the Christ and I know what you are doing is helping God's children know him and Come Unto Him.

[divine_scorpio]

I love watching this. I have been starting to attend church after nearly a year of excuses to not. The chosen has helped to put a fire in me to read scripture and pursue God more. There is scripture in The Chosen that finally makes sense to me. I have watched many Christian films about the life of Jesus, and the scripture was still confusing, and I had a hard time connecting with Jesus. This is the first time I can identify with scripture and I feel that I am being granted clarity. I can see better now how Jesus is the son of God and human at the same time. Thank you Chosen for helping me come back to the Lord, and develop a better relationship with him.

One scene, can not take away the love that this entire show has freely bought to so many people around the globe. The joy of finding Jesus all over again or re-igniting the love we already have for him. I don't know about you, but I cry, every scene where Jesus talks to anyone (btw, Roumie, hands down best Jesus actor of all time, the kindness in his facial expressions and mannerisms really pulls on the heartstrings). That to me, is what i believe the show is about and what is intended by it. Lots of peace, love and blessings to you all ❤🙏🌏
