Mk 3:8 ... and from Jerusalem, and from the Idumea, and the-other-side of-the Jordan, and around Tyre and Sidon, a-great multitude hearing all-that he-did came before him

Verse 3:8 contains these 24 narrator words ... Kai apo Ierosolumōn, kai apo tēs Idoumaias, kai peran tou Iordanou, kai peri Turon kai Sidōna, plēthos polu akouontes hosa epoiei ēlthon pros auton (and from Jerusalem, and from the Idumea, and the-other-side of-the Jordan, and around Tyre and Sidon, a-great multitude hearing all-that he-did came before him).

Diagram 1: The 24 (8+8+8) words are top down. This great multitude is different from the great multitude in the previous diagram. Jesus and 2 words are tangent to the top of the raised Jesus (8880) circle. Eighteen words are tangent to the sides of the graph (holding the 8880 circle) between the sea and the earth below, and four words are tangent to the bottom of the raised Jesus (8880) circle.

Diagram 2: The diagram shows the 24 words as 24 (8+8+8) men. The eight Greek words "plēthos polu akouontes hosa epoiei ēlthon pros auton" (a great multitude hearing everything that he did came before him) are a drawing instruction. When Jesus points to his ears the great multitude must listen. Two 1480 "hearing circles" drawn tangent to the ears of the bottom two men symbolically allows the great multitude to hear and see everything that Jesus says and does inside the raised Jesus (8880) circle. The next diagram will show how things look when you combine verses 7 and 8.
