Mk 4:30a ... And he said, "To what should we compare the Kingdom of God"?

Verse 30 has three phrases containing 14 words. The 1st and 2nd phrases contain these 2 narrator and 6 dialog words, ... Kai elegen, Pōs omoiōsōmen tēn basileian tou Theou (And he said, ... "To what should we compare the Kingdom of God")?

The 8 words are top down tangent to Jesus, the Kingdom, the Holy Spirit, and God the Father. This is the second parable in a row that tries to define the "Kingdom of God" by what things are held inside it, especially the equilateral triangles that form the "Kingdom" and have a Life (815) of their own.
