Mk 8:29a ... And he questioned them, ... "Yet you, whom do you say I am?"

Verse 29 has five phrases and 19 words. The first three phrases have these 4 narrator and 6 dialog words ... Kai autos epērōta autous, Humeis de, tina me legete einai (And he questioned them, "You yet, whom me do you say to be")?

The 4 narrator and 6 dialog words of the first three phrases are top down. The underlying diagram is constructed using the previous diagram as a template. The text doesn't mention the people or prophets so they don't have to appear. Jesus hasn't moved so his words can reach the twelve disciples directly under the word Humeis (plural You). The two Greek words "me einai" (me to be) were translated as "I am."
