Mk 8:31e ... and after three days to stand up.

The seventh phrase has these 5 narrator words ... kai meta treis hēmeras anastēnai (And after three days to stand up).

The 5 narrator words can be top down or bottom up. The words "treis hēmeras anastēnai" (three days to stand up) are tangent to an image of Jesus standing up. The word "anastenai" comes from "ana" (up) and "histēmi" (to stand). This diagram foreshadows his resurrection three days after his death. The lesson of the teacher, his prophesy, is now finished. It is simply amazing how the gospel text works like a drawing instruction so that the imagery of the text always matches it's underlying diagram.
