As other reviewers have noted, this DOES NOT HAVE the behind-the-scenes footage that the DVD does. My friend who has the DVD set kept telling me about the cool behind the scenes where they show how they got the footage, so I was expecting that when I got the Blu-Ray set. Boy was I surprised! Why wouldn't you include it BBC? It was a big disappointment. I could have just downloaded the HD versions from the internet and, not including the Blu-Ray menus, it would have been pretty much the same. The extras are what make buying the actual set worth it (apart from a clear conscience).

Having said that, the video quality is great (there are a few shots not in HD though) and the footage that they got is amazing!

Also, I did get this from Amazon but I got my friend to order it for me because he has Amazon Prime shipping.

I was recently challenged in an atheist forum, "After 2 million Jews wandered the wilderness for 40 years, why is there ZERO archeological proof of Exodus?" Good question - one I found difficult to answer.

This morning, my Pastor showed this DVD to a group of us who stayed after church. I couldn't help but to audibly say, "Oh...my...God...THANK YOU Jesus!"

If you are Christian, this is a must-see-must-have. If you are an intellectually honest atheist, agnostic, skeptic or if you simply believe in the channeled wisdom of Shirley MacLaine, this is a must-see-must-have. If this does not ground your Christian faith or bring you to it, nothing will. As far as archeological proof goes, this DVD deals us four aces with a king kicking it.

As a backslidden non-believer myself, I only WISH I would have come across this proof at the BEGINNING of my search...it would have saved me a lot of time and angst. Let's face it, having a dose of intellectually fulfilling proof that grounds the Bible as TRUTH (versus a 'Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups') compels one to 'sit up and take notice' when it comes to believing the rest of it.

My briefcase will never be without an additional copy of this DVD to give away.

God is real, with or without your or my acknowledgment. It's simply nice to have tangible proof.

Sign me,

Intellectually Fulfilled Christian
