Jacob (The Bible Collection) Reviews:
X rated Bible story ???
2009-12-23 - I agree with the other reviewers regarding Esau using profanity time and time again. Hollywood just can not pass up an opportunity to defile the word of God. Like a few others, my copy went into the trash before any visitors noticed I was in possession of it.

God teaches us lessons in life
2009-10-12 - Hello, regarding the movie Jacob. In this movie Jacob is the one who talks to God and the one who can heal the sick also, the one whom his mother loves. Esaw is his brother a hunter, and the one whom his father loves. In this movies we are all taught a lesson that if you do something bad the Lord will teach us a lesson. Although as it turns out the Lord was working for the good in this. Jacob learns the value of family and so does Esaw. Jacob put his self in slavery for seven whole years to finally marry the woman he loves. The lord told him that his children will be as the sand so many. That he would have a child from Rebbeca. Rebbeca didn't believe the Lord. She gave her hand maiden to Jacob, because she was jealous of her sister who already had given Jacob 12 children. It goes to say that you must believe in something more than yourself. The Lord is good, and we must believe what he says.

Thanks,

Dorothy

It is ok, better than the other Jacob movies: err I don't think there are many.
2009-04-18 - I watched this last night and overall it was pretty well done, but what bothered me to give it only three stars where the horrible acting that the sons of Laban had in the movie. Also what was really disappointing is that Jacob went straight over to Rachel when it was different in the bible as some of you may know. The running time was sort of sad too, I wish it could have gone on longer and extended but sometimes you just can't. All and all it was much better than watching some of the stuff on television today.

A Good Story
2009-01-23 - This is a true love story and one that I think is very imporant for anyone who's ever had to work hard for love. Jacob is the son of Isaac, but was born just a few seconds too late. He has a twin brother whom he ends up have to betray, along with is father, in order to get the inheritance her mother feels should belong to him.

This movie, made for TV, does the story real justice. It tells the love story of Jacob and Leah and shows that true love conquerors all and is willing to work hard. I think that's a lesson missing in many modern relationships. Real love takes work!

It's also a story of forgiveness and mercy because Esau, Jacob's brother, eventually forgives him for what he did to him.

Modine plays a very good Jacob and I felt he connected with the character. I also felt the supporting cast was very good also. The costumes and setting helped to move this story along without being distracting.

Good family film too.

Great presentation!
2008-11-29 - We really enjoy all of The Bible Collection movies and this one was one of the better ones. Great presentation, great Biblical interpretation!
