Mk 10:33a ... "That behold, we are stepping up into Jerusalem, ..."

Verse 33 has 5 phrases containing 24 dialog words Jesus says to his disciples. The first two phrases have these 5 words, ... Hoti Idou, anabainomen eis Ierosoluma ("That behold, we are stepping up into Jerusalem, ...").

The 5 dialog words are bottom up. Verse 33a concludes the mini lesson started in verse 32a about the various sizes and signs that signify Jerusalem. One can zoom in or out of Jerusalem, changing it's size or shape at any time depending on what the words of the verse require. The diagram shows Jesus and the twelve walking up "the way" into four signs of Jerusalem, the two rectangles at the top or bottom of the graph, the hexagon in the center, and the 6 or 8 white triangles filling the space inside the raised Jesus (8880) circle. Each of the four signs have the exact same area.
