The Young Messiah is a 2016 Biblical drama about Jesus as a young boy. It is based on the Anne Rice novel Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt. It begins with Jesus (Adam Greaves-Neal) and his family in Egypt, having fled there after Jesus was born, to escape Herod (Jonathan Bailey)'s slaughter of all the male infants in Judea. When Jesus is seven years old, they travel back to Mary and Joseph's home town of Nazareth and try to resume their old life, but they must deal with the challenges of raising a child who has supernatural powers and has a special destiny that not even he is fully aware of yet. The film also stars Sean Bean as a Roman soldier named Severus, who is tasked by Herod's son with finding and killing the child they missed seven years ago. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| The Young Messiah / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: There is hardly any information in the Bible about Jesus' boyhood, but a few incidents from the apocryphal Gospel of Thomas are used in a modified way that harmonizes more closely with the Biblical Gospel accounts. | |

Would Hurt a Child: Satan kills a young boy by rolling an apple into the street, and subsequently frames Jesus for it. Severus has one of his men grab a young girl by her throat to force villagers to give up Jesus's name. He also participated in the slaughter of the Jewish babies in Bethlehem seven years ago. | |

Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves: The man who gives Jesus a toy camel goes to Herod with information about Jesus, hoping to get a reward. Herod has him crucified instead, but it's less because the man had outlived his usefulness, and more because Herod is just psychotic. | |

Villainous Breakdown: After Severus lies and reports that he has killed young Jesus, Herod, who was rather unhinged to begin with, starts ranting and having hallucinations of snakes in his bed. An unusual example, in that Herod has a breakdown even though, as far as he knows, his plan has succeeded. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| The Young Messiah / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Several, for events that don't happen in this film, but during the life of the adult Jesus. The Crucifixion is foreshadowed when Mary, Joseph and Jesus pass by some criminals being crucified by the Romans. Jesus goes under the water in the Jordan River, foreshadowing his baptism. Jesus visits the temple marketplace and sets a dove free, foreshadowing his cleansing of the temple. Satan showing Jesus Jerusalem on top of a hill foreshadows the temptation. | |

Make an Example of Them: The Romans routinely crucify rebellious Jews by the side of the road, for everyone to see, and it's implied that they occasionally punish completely innocent people just to keep everyone else submissive. | |
