Mk 14:15 ... "And he will show you a large upper-earth spread ready, and there prepare (the passover) for us."

Verse 15 has 2 phrases containing these 12 dialog words, ... Kai autos humin deiksei avagaion mega estrōmenon hetoimon. Kai ekei hetoimasate hēmin ("And he you will show upper-earth a large spread ready, and there prepare for us").

The 12 words are top down and up the center. The noun "anagaion" comes from the preposition "ana" (upper, above) and "gaion" comes from "gē" (earth, land). The suffix "ion" is a diminutive applied to gē which might mean "little earth" or "like an earth." The word "mega" (large, great) points to the room being tangent to a 4440 circle. The bible translation of "avagaion mega" is "a large upper room." A more literal translation is "a large upper-earth" which is a metaphor for heaven. The unspoken object of the verb "prepare" is the abstract noun, "the passover," which by convention is an equilateral triangle. The 4 words of the last phrase is tangent to "for us," the house ruler, the teacher, and the disciples. The original passover meal was unraised bread after the blood of a sacrificed lamb was painted over the door of Jewish houses. The diagram shows the Teacher standing before the door of the house.
