"We have majored on Jesus, because he is the central figure in the Bible."

a shorter bible. they removed all the bullshit. it's 1/2 a page long.

'Look, there's a great story here - let's get into it and let's not get put off by the things that are going to be the sub-plot. Let's give you the big plot'

nah, no need to get caught up in sub-plots, they're superfluous anyway.

"This is a book for adults and has been written in a style to encourage readers to keep turning the pages, but without resorting to any literary gimmicks."

because shortening a 1000+ page book to make it readable in 100 minutes is in no way a literary gimmick.
