The second phrase has these 7 narrator words ... diesteilato autois hina mēdeni ha eidon diēgēsōntai (he gave orders to them that no one what they saw they should tell, ...). The 7 narrator words are top down from Jesus to James and John. The diagram shows the three disciples have now stepped down to the bottom of the mountain. The word "diesteilato" (he gave orders) is tangent to Jesus. The 3 words "hina mēdeni ha" (that no one what) are tangent to the green triangles holding Simon and 'no one' below him. The words "eidon diēgēsōntai" (they saw they should tell) are tangent to James and John. The two white circles linking the heads of the three disciples together represents what they saw. The 2 empty circles coming from their mouths not touching anyone represent their obedience not to tell "mēdeni" (no one) what they saw. 9:9a < Verse > 9:9c |
