this movie and several other movie from the 1950s with a religious overtone and such a the robe and quo vadis and and samson and delilah and unfortunately depict all pagan or anybody who isn not a jew or christian a morally deprave and decadent . the focus be only on biblical related story that ignore the world outside the bible . as far a they be concerned and nothing good come from pagan egypt and greece or rome . any movie that preach about the one true god give a short shift to freedom of religion . the movie ignore the fact that ancient judea lack of religious freedom make it a fertile ground for religious extremism . most 1950s religious movie also overlook the loss of freedom the occur after christian assume political power in the 4th century .
