Editorial Reviews

THE STAR OF BETHLEHEM FASCINATES. For millennia believers scoffers and the curious have wondered at the Biblical account of the Star. The Bible recounts unusual or even impossible astronomical events at Christ's birth. For many doubters the account of the Star is easily dismissed as myth. For many believers it's a mystery accepted on faith. But what happens if we combine current historical scholarship astronomical fact and an open mind? Judge for yourself...System Requirements:Run Time: 65 minutes Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/MISC. UPC: 796019806763 Manufacturer No: 80676

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressed, November 21, 2007

By 

John W. (Grand Junction, CO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Star of Bethlehem (DVD)

I just watched this, expecting to be unimpressed by a guy making up wild theories. What I saw blew me away! The depth of scholarship and attention to detail convinced me that Rick has arrived at the truth. As a "just the facts ma'am" kind of guy, I'm not easily impressed, but this is the best documentary I've seen in years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Evidence for God, October 18, 2007

This review is from: The Star of Bethlehem (DVD)

A magnificent display of the evidence to support the claims made for the Star of Bethlehem. The presentation is an inquiry without presupposition that engages even the most hostile viewer in an entertaining and easily understandable way. The data and the methods of investigation employed are transparent to anyone wanting to repeat them for themselves - I have and find only more evidence for the claims he makes, the visuals and the music are a delight and the discovery will take your breath away. A great Christmas present for anybody open minded to sorting truth from myth and legend regardless of religious persuasion. The Bible always said the heavens declare the glory of God. If you don't see that, get this DVD.

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: The Star of Bethlehem (DVD)

We bought this DVD as soon as it was available for sale through its original vendor. Twice I've seen Rick Larson give this presentation live and it brought tears to my eyes BOTH times. When the DVD came out I knew I wanted to buy it to share with others, and that's what I've done. Before I viewed it for the first time I was eager to see how it would compare to the live presentation...it is wonderful! I've pre-ordered more copies to give as gifts.
