Mk 2:7b ... "Who is-able to-forgive sins if not One, the God."

The 3rd and 4th phrases have the following 9 dialog words, ... Tis dunatai afienai hamartias, ei me eis ho Theos! ("Who is-able to-forgive sins if not One, the God.")?

The 9 words are bottom up. The scribes ask their question with it's embedded answer. The diagram shows the four word question "Tis dunatai afienai hamartias" (Who is able to forgive sins) is centered on Jesus. The implied five word answer is centered on God the Father, the singular Holy Spirit of the Scribes. It seems the diagram was designed to reveal the Trinity, both answers are correct.
