Mk 8:34b ... "If anyone desires to follow after me, ..."

The second phrase has these 6 dialog words ... Ei tis thelei opisō mou akolouthein (If anyone desires after me to follow, ...).

The 6 dialog words are bottom up. The six words are tangent to the triangle holding one of the four men in the crowd who shows he desires to follow Jesus. The twelve disciples who appeared in the previous diagram will follow him all the way to Jerusalem. But will the disciples desire to follow him any further after Jesus is arrested? The following chapters will answer that question.
