Mk 6:43a ... And they-raised fragments, ...

Verse 43 has three phrases containing 9 narrator words. The 1st phrase has these 3 words, ... Kai ēran klasmata (And they-raised fragments, ...).

The 3 words are bottom up. After solving 43b and 43c, I knew 12 baskets held exactly 192 loaves and 192 fish. The text for 43a did not mention baskets, loaves, or fish, only fragments. Amazingly, the graph held exactly fragments for 192 fish and fragments for 192 broken bread loaves with just enough room left over for two but no more than three words. The diagram shows 384 fish fragments, 378 broken loaf fragments, and 22 very small bread fragments that have been raised from the bottom of the graph to the top. The placement of the words and the imagery of the text is a perfect match for the imagery of the signs.
