Jn 5:2b ... the-one being-called in-Hebrew Bethzatha, five porticos having.

The 2nd and 3rd phrases have these 7 narrator words in this order ... hē epilegomenē Hebraisti Bēthzatha, pente stoas exousa (the one being called in Hebrew Bethzatha, five porticos having).

These 7 narrator words are also top down. The name "Bēthzatha" (Bethzatha) like the phrase "in the Jerusalem" is centered in the hexagon. The Hebrew name means "House of Mercy." The three words "pente stoas exousa" (five porticos having), meaning five openings in a covered-colonnade, are tangent to the five equilateral triangles that represent the five porches over the pool. The next verse will tell what kind of men are in these porticos.
