Mk 14:16b ... and they found (the upper room) just as he told them.

The 3rd phrase has these 5 narrator words ... kai euron kathōs eipen autois (and they found just as he told them).

Jesus instructed Simon and John what to do and say in diagrams 13a-15b. Since this is a gematria based gospel, verse 16 should contain 3 diagrams. Diagram 16a showed Simon and John underlead into the city, thereby matching diagram 13a, the 1st instruction from Jesus. Diagram 16b should match diagram 15b, the last instruction from Jesus. Diagram 16c should show the passover they prepared for them in the upper room.

Diagram 15b: The last instruction Jesus told them was "kai ekei hetoimasate hēmin" (and there prepare to us). The 4 words are top down from Jesus to Simon and John. The 3 triangles holding them form a rhombus, the place where a basket of passover bread needs to go.

Diagram 16b: The 5 past tense narrator words "kai euron kathōs eipen autois" (and they found just as he told them) are bottom up through the gate, the doorway, then the triangles holding Simon and John who will prepare the passover. The word "euron" (they found), triangle in the doorway, is tangent to the triangles holding Simon and John. The 3 words "kathōs eipen autois" (just as he told them) are tangent to Simon and John. The 4 dialog words coming down, (and there prepare to us), are tangent to Jesus, Simon and John. The words "autois" (them), and "hēmin" (to us) overlapp each other. The positions of Jesus, Simon, and John in Diagrams 16b and 15b match!

In verse 16c, let's see if we find the next 4 words and the basket of passover bread tangent to Jesus, Simon, and John, and to the triangles that hold them, inside the upper room "just as Jesus told them."
