Really enjoyed watching the Walking the Bible DVD's. Very interesting. Also, it notes some historical facts which helps to understand some of the book of Genesis.

I originally saw this on PBS and really enjoyed it. (Obviously, I bought it!) The scenery is fantastic, and the camera work is also very good. What makes this worth while is the host's quirky real life approach to a layman's journey into the Holy Land. Questions of his faith, the scientific approaches, and the people he interacts with enhance this program tremendously. You don't need to be a person of faith to appreciate this 2 part series, but I also see that it might bolster the resolve of a spiritual person as well. I recommend this informative movie for anyone interested in history, travel, new culture, or curiosity of how the other half live. Well done.
The DVD series, done for PBS, are a "light" version of the excellent book by Feiler. While the cinematography and materials are well-done, the "substance" of the book didn't translate as well as I would have liked. Very viewable and full of beauty and classic vistas, the DVD covers the trek of Feiler through the Torah- from Mount Ararat to the Sinai, from Abraham to Moses. I would recommend the books (there are three- "Walking the Bible", "Abraham" and "Where God was Born") ahead of the DVD, but it is a scenic visual tour of some of the most beautiful land on the planet.
I very much enjoyed this series as it was engaging study og geography, history and spiritual backgrounds taking me where I would like to go on my own.

Does a great job of making the Bible seem so real, not just rather remote names far away form today.
