    My Opinion: The Bible mini-series like many films and TV series about the bible is not perfect. It does tend to leave out some details of certain stories‚ such as in Exodus how after fleeing Egypt Moses marries a woman of a wandering tribe that he encounters in the desert.

    Salome Salome‚ the Daughter of Herodias (c. AD 14 – between 62 and 71)‚ is known from the New Testament (Mark 6:17-29 and Matthew 14:3-11). Her name means "peace".
