jack"Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them"
Once again, a single verse that could contain a whole story. If you're skimming, it's just "Jesus preached". But if you were making a film, you can imagine a whole scene here.
Maybe someone happened along, and spoke to Jesus, and Jesus replied, and someone else overhead, and said that was interesting, and they began to debate. And then a couple of other people saw something going on, and one of them came over, and the other ran back to get a friend, and ran into a bunch of other people, and told them that preacher they'd heard about was just getting into an argument about theology, and they rushed over. And Jesus is just looking around for something to stand on, when you get a montage sequence of people leaping up, kicking over chairs, scuffing stones with sandles, rushing along the beach... A crowd has gathered, Jesus straining to retain some sanity in the discussion...
Wow, now I want to make a humorous but pro-Jesus film of the gospels. Wow, that would be controvertial :)
