Jn 11:11a ... 'These-things' he-said, ...

Verse 11 has 5 phrases and 17 words. The 1st phrase has these 2 narrator words, ... Tauta eipen (These-things he-said, ...). Obviously, the answer is the number of dialog words Jesus said between the start of verse 7 and the end of verse 10.

"These-things he-said" are a flashback to the 41 dialog words Jesus said in verses 11:7-10: "Agōmen eis tēn Ioudaian palin. Ouxi dōdeka hōrai eisin tēs hēmeras? Ean tis peripatē en tē hēmera ou proskoptei, hoti to fōs tou kosmos toutou blepei. Ean de tis peripatē en tē nukti, proskoptei, hoti to fōs ouk estin en autō." ("Let us go into the Judea again. Not twelve hours are-there of-the day? If anyone walks-around in the day, not does-he-stumble, because the light of-the world he-sees. If but anyone walks-around in the night, he-stumbles because 'the light' not is in him.") The 41 dialog words are tangent to the world and the box holding the twelve disciples.
