The third phrase contains these 8 narrator words ... kai episteusen autos kai hē oikia autou holē (and he believed and the household of him all). The 8 narrator words are top down. Since the story never mentions the Royal officials wife we can't assume she is alive. He might be a widower. With no wife, that explains why he has at least two slaves to take care of his son and the house. The diagram shows all 8 words are tangent to the images they name. The first 3 words are tangent to the father. The last 5 words are tangent to the father, the two slaves, and his son. Jn 4:53a < Verses > 4:54a |
