Jackson’s misquotation of Ezekiel 2. Pulp Fiction, was voted the fourth best movie speech of all time. I’m sure many of you are familiar with the scene.

Samuel L. Jackson’s misquote of Ezekiel 25:17 is epic, but lost in the brilliant grunge of Pulp Fiction is a depiction of God’s grace in redeeming the lost. Created by Cynthia True, Amy Poehler, Erik Wiese. With Amy Poehler, Dee Bradley Baker, Grey DeLisle, Andy Richter. Overachieving Honeybee scout, Bessie Higgenbottom.

Jackson says,“Do you read the Bible, Brett? Well there’s this passage I’ve got memorized – sort of fits this occasion. Ezekiel 2. 5: 1. 7.”Then Jackson goes on to deliver what appears to be a tremendously dramatic Bible exhortation: “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”*The following video contains violent content not suitable for all viewers. The thing is, the quotation above is not at all a proper rendering of Ezekiel 2. The actual verse reads as follows: Ezekiel 2. And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.

Sure Jackson’s quote finishes along the same lines as the Bible verse, but the preceding lines in Pulp Fiction’s rendition appear nowhere in the Bible, and certainly not in Ezekiel chapter 2. Additionally, there are a couple of theological inconsistencies present in the Pulp Fiction monologue. Empire State Online Putlocker.

Admittedly, Quentin Tarantino, the writer and director of Pulp Fiction, dreamed up this quotation as a re- imagining of several Biblical themes, and reworked them as a monologue that he believed best expressed the drama intended for the movie scene. Pretty much all of the themes Jackson’s passage incorporates are found in different places in the Bible, but they are all re- workings, not true to the original text. The portion of the monologue about the tyranny of evil men is inspired by Ezekiel 3. The portion about the valley of darkness refers to King David’s words in Psalm 2. Genesis 4, in which Cain, after murdering his brother, asks the LORD, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”It should be noted that this post is neither an endorsement of Tarantino’s re- rendering the Bible, nor of the movie Pulp Fiction as a theological guide. I would hope that much would be obvious. But, what I do find most interesting, and want to point out, is that often over- looked in this incredibly popular film is the salvation story of Samuel L.

Jackson’s character Jules Winnfield. Toward the end of the movie the savage bounty hunter experiences what clearly seems to resemble the effectual calling of the LORD. Winnfield, who seemed to have always had a passing fascination with the way the words of the Bible sounded (rather than what they actually meant), comes to confess that in the context of (his rendition of) Ezekiel 2. But by divine revelation (or as he called it, “a moment of clarity”) he has come to the realization that he must denounce his wicked ways and strive to ”be the shepherd.” Jules Winnfield has experienced what Ezekiel 3. Ezekiel 3. 6: 2. 6- 2. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you.

And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.*The following video contains language not suitable for all viewers. As the end of the movie nears, this enlightened Jules Winnfield, rather than kill a man that he previously would have, says this about (his rendering of) Ezekiel 2. Now… I been sayin’ that *** for years. And if you ever heard it, that meant your ***. You’d be dead right now. I never gave much thought to what it meant.

I just thought it was a cold- blooded thing to say to a ***** before I popped a cap in his ***. But I saw some **** this mornin’ made me think twice.

See, now I’m thinking it could mean you’re the righteous man and I’m the shepherd and it’s the world that’s evil and selfish. And I’d like that. But that **** ain’t the truth. The truth is you’re the weak.

And I’m the tyranny of evil men. But I’m tryin’, Ringo. I’m tryin’ real hard to be the shepherd.”And for that reason, rather than kill Ringo, Jules shares this brief testimony and gives Ringo his wallet (which Ringo was trying to steal).

In doing so he begins the process of repentance, turning from his prior way of life. Lost in the melee of the artistic brilliance and grunge that Pulp Fiction truly is, lies a beautiful, realistic, and moving depiction of God’s sovereign grace in the redemption of lost men. See, God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5: 8). Nothing we have done on our own qualifies us more than another for the saving grace of God.

It is of no advantage to a person who feels they have lived more righteously than another if they are without faith in Christ. The Bible is explicit in telling us that separate from being reborn in Christ there is no one who does good, not even one (Romans 3: 1.

But the good news is that God wishes to show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us through Jesus Christ, and by grace God saves the wicked through their faith. This faith is not anyone’s own doing; but it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2: 7- 8.) This is the gift Jules Winnfield, in Pulp Fiction, is experiencing. Believe: The Eddie Izzard Story Full Movie. You see, in sending Christ to die on the cross, God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God.
