Mk 8:13 ... And having left them again, stepping in, he departed into the other side.

Verse 13 has three phrases containing these 9 narrator words ... Kai afeis auyois palin, embas, apēlthen eis to peran (And having left them again, stepping in, he departed into the other side).

The 9 narrator words are bottom up. The verb "embas" comes from the preposition "en" (in) and the noun "bas'-ece" (foot, hence to step). Jesus leaves the Pharasees by simply stepping up into his little boat and joining his twelve disciples in their large boat on the shoreline of Dalamanutha. One "side" of the "shoreline" is the Sea of Galilee. The "other side" of the shoreline is the brown bowl of the earth (Dalamanutha) below.
