I watched this movie last Sunday. Hadn't a clue about the synopsis. Guess that just made the movie a whole lot more interesting.
I was surprised that the movie actually, skillfully and artistically promotes the importance of Bible in human life.
The movie illustrated the depravity and degeneration of morale in the future world.
Thus, the world is devastated by wars. People are killing each other to survive. Some even have to eat human meat to avoid starvation.
This man, Eli, has a book that, a city leader believes, will revive great power. This book, undoubtedly is the Bible. All bibles were burned and destroyed in the previous wars, and none is aware, that there is one last book, which lies in Eli's hand! (to prove Mat23:35Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away; Mat 5:18; Isa40:8)
That's why, Eli seemed to be the only one with moral values.
(Ephesians 4:22...you lay aside...that which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,)
My impression
One thing i loved about this movie, is that the story was realistic.
It mirrored the mysterious ways of God, which surpass human's comprehension.
God didn't perform amazing miracles like opening the Red Sea, but in ways that none can fathom.
I highly recommend this movie. But, ehem, beware, 'cause it's 18PL.
And one last shocking thing about the movie,
The last Bible was in braille, which means Eli was blind all along. (2 Corinthians 5:7 We live by faith, not by sight)
星期日我看了“艾利之书”。
看前,对这部电影毫无线索,不晓得它的大纲等。
酱一来,这电影才更有新鲜感。
这电影很有艺术地,和技巧性地推广圣经尚高的地位。
表达着未来人类的堕落和无道德的性质。
世界各地都被战争摧毁了。人类为了生活而互相残杀,甚至吃人肉。
艾利此人拥有一本书。
这书是一位城市领导者所相信能带来极大威力的奇书,
就是圣经。
所有的圣经在战争期间被焚毁,但无人发现艾利身藏最后一本。
(印证了太二三35;五18;赛四十8)
因此艾利似乎是唯一有道德的人。(弗四22)
“艾利之书”与我
故事内容真实。精妙地呈现出神的道超乎人的想象这道理。
戏中没什么惊人大神迹,没开红海,但结局却是无人能抓摸的。
最后一个惊人的内容:那最后的圣经是盲文篇写的。意表着,艾利是盲的。
(哥后五7靠信心不靠眼见)
