The Childlike and Biblical Connotations in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Throughout his writing career, CS Lewis has been known for writing many books with a hint of biblical connotations in them. As Kathryn Lindskoog states, "CS Lewis is known for opposing the spirit of modern thought with the unpopular Christian doctrines of sin and evil" (2083). Lewis himself has said, "You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life or
Beaver was describing Aslan to the Pevensie children; Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. Mr. Beaver said “I tell you he is the King of the wood and the son of the great Emperor-beyond-the Sea. Don’t you know who is the King of Beasts? Aslan is a lion—the lion.” Then Susan stated she would be nervous meeting a lion.

She seems to be the first one to enter Narnia and when she enters, she encounters something she has never seen before. She comes across a Faun, Mr. Tumnus, which is a goat with the head of a human.

With that being said, the two movies were very similar as they entered into the wardrobe of Narnia but throughout the movie their
when Lucy enters the world of Narnia, she is immediately drawn to the lamp post; this light could represent Jesus, as Jesus is quoted in the Bible saying "I am the light of the world"(john 8:12). Another example is that many times throughout the film the children are referred to as “sons of Adam” and “daughters of Eve”. This is a clear reference to the Bible, particularly at the beginning of the movie where Lucy meets Mr. Tumnus and he says; “So you are a daughter of Eve?”, followed by Lucy saying;
"just magic." There were several significant characters in this story: Aslan- a lion, Edmund - a little boy, The Emperor-Beyond- The- Sea, Father Christmas, and The White Witch.

There are many movies that deal with mystical adventures and religious adventures, but none compare to The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. In this particular movie Andrew Adamson depicts how children living during the 1940’s couldn’t escape the reality of the world they live in, even with their religious beliefs. This movie takes place during a time of depression. It was the 1940’s, World War II was in full force and the Nazis were steam-rolling through countries. This
