![]() Vincent, the divine one, sees the light inside of Marsellus's case, But Jules does not look. He goes to the cupboard to retrieve the case, but he has to get it from "the one by your knees." So he kneels for the case, and opens it and looks inside. Vincent goes into the kitchen, which represents the inner part of the temple. This theme continues inside of the apartment. When he is arguing with Vincent about foot massages, he refers to the genitals as "the Holiest of Holies." This is the innermost part of the Hebrew temple. He says he wants to wander the earth like "Caine from Kung Fu," But of course he's also referring to Cain from Genesis who walked the earth. In the diner, he says that he doesn't eat pork because pigs are filthy animals. The fake Bible verse he uses is from the Old Testament. Jules often represents Old testament views. When Vincent and Jules go into the bar, Marsellus calls for vincent, and embraces him. It is already an existing theory that Marsellus Wallace's character represents God, and the suitcase contains his soul. ![]() This is a reference to Jesus washing his disciples feet. Vincent argues their importance, while Jules argues that they aren't significant, or at least not as much as oral sex. In the first scene with Jules and Vincent, they talk about foot massages. Jules says "Jules, did you ever hear the philosophy that once a man admits that he's wrong that he is immediately forgiven for all wrongdoings? Have you ever heard that?" Obviously, these are Christian values he is referencing. Jules is mad at Vincent as says he will never forgive him for the incident. One of the most obvious examples is while he and Jules are cleaning out the boy's blood from their car at Jimmie's house. However, in the non linear context of the film, Vincent dies and then is alive again.ĭialogue supports this theory. We know that literally speaking, Vincent dies in the middle of the movie at Butch's house, and doesn't come back to life. Vincent Vega represents Jesus in his death and resurrection in the film. It's so obvious, once you look at it this way, everything lines up, but amazingly I haven't found anything making this connection in the movie's 20 years of existence.
