Overall Structure

 

By way of Example, here are some documents used in The Gnomes of New Hope.
The same sort of information will be developed for Alpha & Omega.

Act one music from Gnomes

Act Two Music for Gnomes

The two images above exemplify the timing used in The Gnomes of New Hope. 
This is not the timing for the entire show, it is only a list of the times for the music.


Here is a Timing Breakdown for Act One of "The Gnomes of New Hope"

This document is sized to 16" x 20" for printout purposes.  It's not terribly clear on the screen,
but it gives you an idea of how the timing is calculated.

"I Am Alpha & Omega" is divided into three Acts, the timing of which has been posted elsewhere. Generally speaking,  Act One is the longest, Act Two shorter, And Act three the shortest.

Terminology

    a photo taken by Jane Blair          on New Church Day              June 19th 2025   I will post pertinent terminology here, which will be foundational to the restructured Libretto. Forr the most part, I will number thoughts, that will generally apply to the rewrite. 1)  I was reading a new translation of the book "Heaven and Hell". In it, the latin phrase "filius hominis" , traditionally translated as "the Son of Man" is translated as "the Human born One" . This changes the perspective overall in a huge way and I think this will be a big part of A&O, because it infers a larger context in conveying the structure from the Ultimate Divine to the outermosts of the natural degree and further down into the deepest hell  I thought I should convey this 2) 5/29/25 - a conversation at church today was in this regard;  Creation was effected from the Prime to the Outermosts and  from thence int...

Correspondances

Image
   I will continue to add to this post and to order these elements as they will appear in the Libretto.  Update 7/19/25     My recent thoughts on Correspondences ; I have it in my mind to review the concept of the piece, from beginning to end (Alpha & Omega) in the context of the Correspondances that should encompass the content. This is difficult to express. There are notable events conveyed throughout the Word, but there are also lesser events and concepts that contain significant correspondances.    I'm looking at it this way, it is difficult to see a sequence of events that give the "plot line" substance other than in a documentary/informative sense.  But I really believe that this correspondental interior needs to be revealed before any "plot line structure" can be locked in. I want to say established, but there is (in past revisions) a plot line of sorts.    Absolutely, the original screenplay had a good plot line...

NOTES on Acts One & Two

Image
Update 8/29/25  It is said in  The Writings that the Ancient Word still exists and is located somewhere in Tartary. Fragments of The Book of Giants were found in Tartary. The book of Giants was also found in The Dead Sea Scrolls and is tied to the Books of. Enoch and The Jubilees . Events Leading up to the Flood    Research into the documents discovered in The Dead Sea Scrolls leads to the possibility that The Creation began well before the creation of man in the natural degree. The implication is that "the Sons of God" refers to the angels that were created, presumably in or above the Celestial Degree. Further, the inference is that when those angels placed "Love of Self" above Love of God, they fell (from Grace). The sequence of events surrounding that fall from Grace, leads one to believe that upon such fall, hell was created. One might conclude that when hell was created it necessitated the creation of heaven as a balancing factor. If th...
