A Believer Speaks in a Corinthian House Church

Prompt

1 Corinthians 14: 'When ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine... Let all things be done decently and in order.' In a Corinthian house church, a believer stands large and central speaking clearly with an open hand, while a young man beside him plays a wooden lyre, and the seated congregation, men and women with their heads covered, listen attentively in peaceful order. Warm afternoon light through a high window, plastered walls, oil lamps. The men wear wrapped 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.
