Show generally

Factual error: In season 1, there is an Egyptian woman wearing ornate jewellery around her head. Unfortunately, at least 3 components are old UK currency coins from the latter half of the 20th century. Clearly visible are copper 2p pieces and one old silver 10p coin. (00:38:40)

Show generally

Factual error: Capernaum is shown as a town administered by a Roman prefect, patrolled by Roman troops. In reality, Galilee was a completely different jurisdiction from Roman Judea. Judea was under direct Roman administration, but Galilee was under a client king (Herod Antipas), and in that time the internal law enforcement was the task of the local ruler. There were no Roman legionaries patrolling the streets of Capernaum, nor was there a Roman governor of Capernaum or any city in Galilee.
