We went to see the New Ben Hur movie last night. I very much enjoyed this movie and highly reccomend it.
My husband asked me if this movie was based on the Bible ...and so i did a bit of research and this is what i found and want to share about the original author of the book.
Ben Hur (the rest of the story)

Did You Know that the first book of fiction to be “blessed” by a pope was Ben Hur. Yes, Pope Leo XIII did the honors.
