Gospel of Matthew : The First Ever Word for Word Film Adaptation of All Four Gospels

Unedited. Unchanged. Unlike ever before.

The latest of the four-part film series which, word for word, recreates the gospels in their entirety through the most authentic portrayal to-date.

Breaking the cinematic tradition of Jesus being played by a white, English speaking actor, the Lumo project pours its efforts to create the truest account of the four Gospels as possible. Using the very latest digital technology to create seamless miracles and realistic re-buildings of Jerusalem, as well as other towns and cities, the four-part series is able to do more than was ever possible before.

Not only with computers do the people behind the Lumo Project create a tangible 1st century Holy Land. Using the latest research in history, theology, and archaeology, they are able to create a series filled with a rugged authenticity.

Despite all the technological wizardry and thorough research, there is one thing that is always kept at the heart of these adaptations:

The Gospel.

Each film present's the text of its Gospel unedited. No words changed, added, or taken away.

They are simply narrated in both NIV and KJv by famed actors David Thelfall (Master and Commander) and Stephen Tompkinson (Wild at Heart) as the film's population all speak in the correct, era-appropriate, Hebrew.

The Lumo Project is a ground breaking series that revolutionizes the way we encounter the story of Jesus and the world of first-century Palestine in which he lived. Redefining the standard of visual biblical media, each Gospel film brings the actual Bible text to the screen, word for word. This DVD contains: - The Gospel of Matthew with narration options of both the NIV and KJV translations - Additional features Filming the Gospel Composing the Gospels - A short guide to the Gospel of Matthew with questions for reflection or discussion
