Nasim777 i will show you some lies & falsification :1. Jacob is a Prophet & Prophets never did anything wrong or foolish. but we saw Jacob betrayed to his brother , he asks for an idiotic Circumcision that has no good effects on anything , he did nothing to his sons who was killer & should be punished . 2. Jacobs wives worshiped idols !!!! its a big lie3. Dinah never existed4. Joseph was a Prophet too & his anger about Dinahs son was a lie too5. the story of Joseph in Egypt was a Falsification story6. Rebecca was not evil

edwagreen Well acted but watch for gross historical inaccuracies as the author must have desperately tried to make the Jews coming into Egypt more of a romantic adventure.True, this is a story of family betrayal and ultimate redemption, but come on, let's not lose sight of historical events occurring as they did.Laban is made out to be a drunken man, instead of the man who tricked Jacob into marrying Leah instead of his beloved Rachel.Leah's sons were evil, but killing a king and destroying their step-sister's opportunity was a bit over the top. After their dastardly deed, they are mentioned in the rest of the picture, but there is no talk of what became of them, unless the author meant letting nature and the years take their course.

sugarqueen2 I would not say this is the most accurate version of events, thus earning the rating of 8. I did enjoy it, though. The performances were solid, the cast was well-chosen. Our only problem was that we recorded this as we were not to be at home for it. Tonight I got through #1, but the #2 Red Tent was heavily pixilated and jumping throughout almost the entire program.This also included the dialog. After I struggled through #2, I went back to watching live TV. I've had no trouble with the TV reception.The usual "fixes" for that were ineffectual. I was disappointed, as regardless of accuracy, this was an interestingly written tale.I hope I will be able to rent it sometime, so I can see the full story.

christiank7 Oh My God! Appropriate start for what will be a scathing critique. If I had not watched it I would not have believed how bad TV can get. This is why so many people regard the church ie Catholic etc religion with so much contempt. Not only is it a total Hollywood creation based on an interpretation of the scant "real" historical facts but it ascribes a sense of modern feminism that was absolutely not tolerated and totally absent in those years. Get a grip people. How anybody can give this a positive review is absolutely astonishing. The script is so lame that even the best direction which this show does not have could not make the actors give a better rendition. The acting - it has to be said is badly affected by this - is almost to a person awful. Some of the wives have moments when their sex appeal is almost enjoyable and if that is the only redeeming aspect then this show is in big trouble. Whoever made this garbage happen is a blithering imbecile TV producer who has absolutely no intention of making a quality product and like our friend Gruber regards the entire public as stupid. Is this the way we wish to celebrate Xmas? Not me for sure. It is high time that the censorship board goes beyond judging what is pathetic and crude but also what is base and downright awful. This show reminds me a lot of the garbage movies made about religion in the days back in the 30s to 60s. Lame- lame - lame!
