It just so happens that I caught a livestream that Jonathan Roumie did at the same time we were filming! He happened to hold up his script of the longest scene in chosen history that we were filming as well as his water bottle that I definitely noticed as well!
This man has amazing Catholic faith! He said that this water bottle was a gift from a fan, and I noticed many of the stickers on it while we were filming. In this shot you can definitely see the symbol of Mary as well as the immaculate heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of jesus.
Before each take Jonathan wood Genuflect and pray finishing with the sign of the cross. As I noticed him doing this, I joined him in prayer and praying the sign of the cross as well . It was so beautifully unifying! Sometimes he would kneel and draw the catholic fish or the PX which is the Chi Rio in the sand. I was absolutely floored by Jonathan's Catholic faith and became an even bigger fan of him as a result.
Further, the scene was full of tension as he was yelling at the pharisees as hypocrites. To prepare for being angry he would yell an exclamation, usually "Auugggh!" ... Or he would walk up to them and scream something in an angry tone to get ready.
Then we would hear what we heard for all 3 days which was the following phrase: "Background!... aaannnndd ACTION!" If you watch the Live stream clip at the link below you can clearly hear It at The End of the season 5 filming clip.
There was also a stand in that replaced Jonathan when filming was not imminent so they could get the scene ready. His name is escaping me at the moment, but many of us just called him Jesus 2.
