Mk 12:32c ... "and there is not another except him."

The 5th phrase has these 6 dialog words, ... kai ouk estin allos plēn autou ("and not is another except him").

The 6 dialog words are bottom up. Verse 32 is still talking about "there is one God." The 3 words "ouk estin allos" (not is another) are tangent to the triangle holding Jesus. Without further clarification, this means Jesus is the "One God." However the 2 following words "plēn autou" (except him) are tangent to the triangle holding another image of Jesus above him which seemingly contradicts the 3 previous words, meaning "there is another "One God" but it is not Jesus. But then the last 5 words taken together state that Jesus is the One God. But this is a contradiction. The solution is that both images are tangent to the same triangle meaning they are both the One God. If the triangle is the sign of a Spirit, that means there are 3 Gods in One, the sign of the Trinity.
