Simon the Zealot Becomes a Disciple (The Chosen Scene)

It’s clear from the Gospels that one of Jesus’ 12 disciples named Simon had formerly been a Zealot—that is, a Jewish nationalist who wanted to violently overthrow Roman rule. Like many Jewish people of the First Century, the Zealots expected Messiah to be a military leader who would crush his enemies, and Simon was eager to use his dagger in his new master’s service…until he learned Jesus has a better sword. This scene comes from Season 2, Episode 5, which you can watch now on Prime Video and The Chosen app. --- Watch The Chosen and exclusive content free on our app: https://watch.thechosen.tv/ Wear The Chosen gear and go deeper with our study materials: https://thechosengifts.com The Chosen is financed by donors like yourself.
