There is a very good reason that they did.
In the film, during a fierce battle, Ben-Hur saves the life of a Roman officer, played by Jack Hawkins who adopts him as a son and he returns to his life of nobility and continues his search for his mother and sister.
In the time after his re-birth, Ben-Hur meets an Arab sheik (Hugh Griffith) with a magnificent stable of four Arabian white horse that will compete in the annual chariot race which Messala has won consecutively for the past four years.
