Jn 1:31c ... "because of this came I in water baptizing."

The third phrase has these 7 dialog words, ... dia touto ēlthon egō en hudati baptizōn ("because of this came I in water baptizing").

The 7 words are top down. The word "dia" (because, through) is tangent to God the Father, the source of the commands from heaven. The 4 words "dia touto ēlthon egō" (because of this, through this came I) are tangent to the Holy Spirit at the top of the diagram and to John in the Holy Spirit in the River Jordan. The 3 words "en hudati baptizōn" (in water baptizing) are tangent to John standing on Jesus coming out of the water and to the arms of John guiding two Israelites into the water to be baptized. More Israelites are standing on the shoreline waiting their turn.
