@thewrap: One of the most most memorable moments in 1994’s #PulpFiction is #SamuelLJackson’s fiery delivery of “Ezekiel 25:17” before completing an execution-style hit — and Jackson proved that those words are still emblazoned on his mind, spitting them out at double-time in a new video shared on social media. Jackson’s star-making role came as intense hitman Jules Winnfield in the #QuentinTarantino film. Older than many a breakout performer, he showed a grit as a 45-year-old performer that left an impression with audiences everywhere. The speech itself ends with some similarity to the actual King James Version of the Bible passage, but it opens with Tarantino’s own mashup of biblical phrases and other inspirations, including martial arts films. Jackson delivers the lines in the film with a simmering rage — particularly his delivery of “furious anger” — that helped the phrase become a popular, quotable line for fans.
