Mk 1:5a ... And they were-going-out before him, all the Judean country, and all the Jerusalemites, ...

Verse 5 has 5 phrases and 24 narrator words. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd phrases contain these 12 narrator words ... Kai ekseporeueto pros autou, pasa ē Ioudaia chōra, kai oi Ierosolumitai pantes (And they were going out before him, all the Judean region, and the Jerusalemites all, ...).

The first 4 words are bottom up the center, tangent to the Jerusalemites, with the last word "autou" (him) tangent to John. The last 8 words are down the sides bracketed by the inclusio "pasa" (all) and "pantes" (all). Jerusalem is in Judea, represented by the six green equilateral triangles. The four men in the crowd represent all the Judeans going out to meet John plus all the Jerusalemites in the city.
