Jesus Heals the Man with a Withered Hand

A man holds out his hand toward Jesus in a stone synagogue while Pharisees in prayer shawls watch from behind. Light falls through high windows.

Prompt

Mark 3: Jesus heals the man with the withered hand on the sabbath. In a Galilean synagogue of stone columns and benches, a man stands in the midst, large and central, stretching out his withered hand, which is being restored whole, his face filled with astonished joy; Jesus stands facing him with a look of grieved compassion and quiet authority. Behind, stern Pharisees in fringed prayer shawls and broad phylacteries watch coldly from the stone benches. Bright daylight streams through high windows. The man and the Pharisees 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.
