Subsequent History
In 1974, following an earlier-than-normal TV screening of the film on BBC TV, which broke a gentlemen's agreement allowing a 'window' of theatrical distribution before any TV screening, the UK's Cinematograph Exhibitors' Association (the theatrical distributors' association) recommended its members blacklist all future movies produced by Jules Buck.
Embassy Pictures re-released the film in May 1983.
An unsuccessful stage version of the movie opened at The Wilma Theater in Philadelphia in 1997 with some plot changes. For example, Jesus was changed to the Dalai Lama.

“And he smiled a kind of sickly smile, and curled up on the floor,
And the subsequent proceedings interested him no more.”

“Free from public debt, at peace with all the world, and with no complicated interests to consult in our intercourse with foreign powers, the present may be hailed as the epoch in our history the most favorable for the settlement of those principles in our domestic policy which shall be best calculated to give stability to our Republic and secure the blessings of freedom to our citizens.”
