Mk 15:35a ... And some of the ones standing nearby having heard were saying ... Look! ...

In the story of the Transfiguration (Mark 9:11-13), Jesus predicted that “Elias would come first and restore all things.” The diagram shows three people who have come to watch, two are "standing nearby" on the call of Jesus and one is "Looking." Elias is coming down in response to the call of Jesus. The word "some" is a cue to leave an empty space for a "runner" who will appear in verse 15:36.

Mk 15:35b ... He is calling Elias.

The length of the four xxx ... is equal to the gematria value of the words. The diagram shows that if Jesus wanted to, Elias could take Jesus down from the cross.
