I don’t know about you, but I have been waiting for this scene since we met Gaius in Season 1 and we got Matthew 8:5-13 vibes. All in all, I was really pleased with it. So if you get tired of my critical commentary, just hang in there for the end!

I think there are three main themes to this episode, so I discuss all three, and also touch on why I’m not happy with frustrated Jesus. Are we in the inner circle of the chosen or are we on the outer circle of the crowd? We’re getting mixed messages, and in my opinion, it might impact how the average viewer sees Jesus. Just my opinion. We talk all about it in this episode.

Looking for a Catholic commentary on the Chosen? You’ve come to the right place! Joan's Take on the Chosen is a Catholic commentary, where we look at the show from a Catholic perspective. Because the show is intended to draw us closer to God’s Word, we will be looking at the Bible, too. Who knew Catholics read the Bible? You can find more from me at joanmwatson.substack.com
