I don't know if it has been mentioned yet:
The Sub-Title of the new DVD is: Listen, obey and be blessed
What kind of blessings are waiting for young caleb?
The only blessing he's experiencing is to avoid something very harmfull. The demolishing of the house wich culminates in the destroying of his teddy-bear. And to get away from the evil snake that likes to seduce him. Nothing else.
The basis for his obedience is nothing but fear.
Should blessings not be something very positive? In this film being blessed just means that bad things doesn't happen to you.
