Jn 5:1b ... And stepped-up Jesus into Jerusalem.

The 2nd phrase has these 5 narrator words ... kai anebē Iēsous eis Hierosoluma (And stepped-up Jesus into Jerusalem).

The 5 narrator words are bottom up. The three words "kai anebē Iēsous" (and stepped-up Jesus) are tangent to the equilateral triangle on which Jesus stands in the center of the city. The two words "eis Hierosoluma" (into Jerusalem) are tangent to the hexagram (the sign of Jerusalem) and to Jesus who "stepped-up into it." All five words work together so that the diagram matches the imagery of the text. The diagram foreshadows Jesus as a feast of the Jews when he "steps-up" (anabainó) into Jerusalem for the feast of Passover.
