Jn 6:10c ... therefore the men reclined, the number about 5000.

The fourth and fifth phrases have these 8 narrator words, ... "anepesan oun hoi andres, ton arithmon, hōs pentakisxilioi" (reclined therefore the men, the number about 5000).

The 8 narrator words are clockwise. The first 4 words "anepesan oun hoi andres" (reclined therefore the men) are are virtually tangent to the circles holding "the grass" reclining in the rectangle, the "lower place." The last 4 words "ton arithmon, hōs pentakisxilioi" (the number about 5000) are tangent to the fourth inscribed square, the one reclining on the single grass seedling (Andrew), who changed the scale of the graph from 8880 to 888. Do the geometry and compute the area of the orange square. The answer is 4993, which is "about 5000."
