In a video shared on Instagram, Jackson flawlessly delivered the iconic passage: “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper, and the finder of lost children.”
“And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!”
Jackson captioned the post, “YOU KNOW I STILL GOT IT!!! EZEKIEL 25:17 ? HAPPY 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF PULP FICTION.”

Directed by Quentin Tarantino, the movie was released in 1994 and features an ensemble cast including John Travolta, Uma Thurman, and Bruce Willis, among others. The film earned seven Oscar nominations, including Best Original Screenplay.
