Imagine this Christian TV Examiner's surprise when I just logged onto my Amazon Associates account to see that someone had purchased a "Beginnings - Part 1" through my account via Amazon Instant Video.
"That looks interesting," I thought to myself, clicking the link to learn more about the familiar-sounding title. Turns out Amazon has placed The History Channel's epic "The Bible" mini-series online (also in HD) to watch for viewers clamoring for the entire show's full episodes that they've either missed due to no cable or satellite options, or want to watch again -- this time online.
Indeed, they not only have full episodes for $1.99 for each listed part, but a free behind-the-scenes look at the epic multi-part series along with six other videos (also available in HD) thus far listed with their original air dates:

6. Hope - Part 2 - March 17, 2013

As more episodes air, I expect this list will grow accordingly, up until and beyond the release date of "The Bible" DVD on April 2, 2013. Here's hoping and praying Amazon keeps the full episodes videos online in perpetuity.
