Mk 1:16a ... And leading-along beside the Sea of Galilee, ...

Verse 16 has 5 phrases containing 21 narrator words. The 1st phrase has these 7 words ... Kai paragōn para tēn thalassan tēs Galilaias (And leading along beside the Sea of Galilee, ... ).

The 7 words are top down. The verb "paragōn," comes from the preposition "para" (along side, beside) and the verb "ago" (I lead) refers to Jesus. The second "para" refers to the sea. Exactly 24 (8+8+8) Jesus (888) circles in vesica mode are visually tangent to each other as Jesus "leads" himself around and "beside" the inside circumference of the sea. Jesus is also leading seven text words that are standing on the hexagon tangent to the surface of the sea, and this is the same hexagon on which he stands.
