Jesus Reads the Scroll in the Nazareth Synagogue

Prompt

Luke 4: Jesus stands up to read in the synagogue at Nazareth on the sabbath. Jesus, large and central, stands at a simple wooden reading desk holding open a parchment scroll of the prophet Isaiah on its wooden rollers, the columns of small handwritten Hebrew script seen only faintly from the side, his face lifted calmly toward the listeners. Behind him, the elders and townsmen of Nazareth sit on stone benches along the walls, their eyes fastened on him. Warm sunlight streams through high windows into the plain limestone synagogue hall. The men in the congregation wear wrapped turbans or head-cloths over their hair. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
