The 6th phrase has these 3 dialog words, ... Kai hupakouousin autō ("And below they listen to him"). The 3 words are bottom up, spoken by the two top Jews in the synagogue who of course hear whatever Jesus says. The verb "hupakouousin" comes from the preposition hupo (under, below) and the verb akouō (to listen, hear). The pronoun "they" in "listen below" refers to the two Unclean Spirits. The diagram shows that the possessed man was listening below for the Unclean Spirits in order "to hear" anything that was said. 1:27d < Verses > 1:28a |
