Okay, I'll share. FYI, I spent several years in a Messianic Synagogue, where Jews who believe Yeshua is the Messiah and non-Jews who believe the same co-mingle and worship together. So, it's not like I have no Jewish roots.
As to how I felt about this movie, I liked it (8/10), but I already knew about most of the Jewish customs involving Sukkot, since I have celebrated that feast and all the other Jewish Feasts for several years.
What causes me some anxiety while watching this movie is the message it makes at the end - faithful people who pass God's tests get Earthly rewards, like Sarah and Abraham.
I do not believe that is a 100% guarantee, because some people only get Heavenly rewards, while not receiving much here on Earth. Thus, I would not wish anyone to walk away from this movie thinking God to be some Genie in a bottle who grants us all we desire when we are good little boys and girls. Although I will conclude with this - God is faithful, and he will honor those who honor Him. (The honor is His choosing.)
I can go on and on, but for now, that's my 1st thought. I hope I answered your question.
- The Truth is Out There, and I found it in Christ!
