Mk 6:9b ... and not to-wear two garments.

The 2nd phrase has these 5 narrator words, ... kai mē endusēsthe duo xitōnas (and not to-wear two garments).

The 5 narrator words are top down. The word "endusasthai" from en (in) and duno (in the sense of sinking in to wear a garment). The word "kitōnas" (a garment, a tunic) is a shoulder to knee length garment made from a rectangular piece of linen about 1.5 times as long as a man is tall. The diagram shows this man wearing a regular garment and a long kitōnas having enough fabric for 1.5 garments extending from his hood down to his sandals. If the disciples each wore a 1.5 length kitōnas, all twelve in full body mode could not fit inside a house.
