| 29a 29b 29c | 30a 30b | 31a 31b 31c 31d | 32a 32b | 33a 33b 33c 33d | 34a 34b | Jn 1:31d ... And testifies John saying ...
Verse 32 has 4 phrases containing 17 words. The first phrase has these 4 text words ... Kai emarturēsen Iōannēs legōn (And testifies John saying, ...). The verb emarturēsen (testified-testifies, Aorist, Active, 3rd person, Singular) is testimony that has occurred and is continuing. The 4 narrative words are horizontal, staggered left to right, the middle two tangent to John. The above diagram shows 45 dialog words of testimony, verses 29b-31c, top down, from John's body to the surface of the sea ... "Ide, Ho amnos tou theou, ho airōn tēn hamartian tou kosmou. Houtos estin huper hou egō eipon, Opisō mou erchetai anēr hos emposthen mou gegonen, hoti prōtos mou ēv. Kagō ouk ēdein auton, all hina fanerōthē tō Israēl, dia touto ēlthon egō en hudati baptizōn" (Look! The Lamb of God, the one taking away the sin of the world. This one is concerning of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who before me existed, because prior to me he was. And I not was aware of him, but that he be made to appear to Israel, because of this came I in water baptizing). What a coincidence that this diagram looks just like John's testimony from verse 28!
