Here is the full KN Pe four jhanas gloss, word commentary, based on B. Nanamoli's translation from the PTS. I highlight the parts that are relevant to mental/physical, 7sb awakening factors, and the number of jhana factors completely different than late Theravada's 'five jhana factors' scheme. I've added some comments to the highlights in curly braces { }. Their fantastic explanation of vitakka/vicara section of course speaks for itself, and is so explicit and detailed there's no way Vism. or B. Sujato could twist it into meaning "having mind glued to a visual kasina."
You can see the straight EBT (early buddhist text, pali) approach I used to establish which factors in jhana are mental and physical, are very similar, nearly the same as what they arrived at in KN Pe. I based my conclusion from AN 48.37 five vedana/indriya scheme, and 7 awakening factors frequently repeated sequence from SN 46.3.
solving the murder mystery from 3rd jhāna
KN Pe is the basis of much the commentary and Abhidhamma method and style. You can see it in Vimt., and you can see how radically twisted and altered it becomes in Vism.

(1st Jhāna)
STED 1st Jhāna
vivicc’eva kāmehi
| Quite-withdrawn (from) sensuality, |
vivicca a-kusalehi dhammehi
| withdrawn (from) un-skillful Dhamma [teachings & qualities], |
sa-vitakkaṃ sa-vicāraṃ
| With-directed-thought, with-evaluation, |
vivekajaṃ pīti-sukhaṃ
| withdrawal-born rapture-&pleasure, |
paṭhamaṃ jhānaṃ upasampajja viharati.
| first Jhāna (he) enters, dwells. |
(rich section on V&V, vitakka & vicara)
♦ tattha a-lobhassa pāripūriyā nekkhamma-vitakkaṃ vitakketi.
| 576. Here, for non-greed fulfillment, renunciation-thoughts (he) thinks. |
tattha a-dosassa pāripūriyā abyāpāda-vitakkaṃ vitakketi.
| for non-hatred fulfillment, renunciation-thoughts (he) thinks. |
tattha a-mohassa pāripūriyā avihiṃsā-vitakkaṃ vitakketi.
| for non-delusion fulfillment, renunciation-thoughts (he) thinks. |
tattha a-lobhassa pāripūriyā vivitto hoti kāmehi.
| 577. “Here, for fulfilling non-passion he is secluded from sensual pleasures. |
tattha a-dosassa pāripūriyā
| Here, for fulfilling non-aggression and |
a-mohassa pāripūriyā ca vivitto hoti pāpakehi akusalehi dhammehi,
| fulfilling non-delusion he is secluded from unskillful phenomena. |
savitakkaṃ savicāraṃ vivekajaṃ pītisukhaṃ
| And so he enters and remains in the first jhāna, |
paṭhamaṃ jhānaṃ upasampajja viharati.
| which includes directed thought and evaluation, as well as joy and pleasure born of seclusion. |
♦ vitakkāti tayo vitakkā —
| 578. Directed thought: There are three kinds of directed thought, namely |
nekkhammavitakko
| the thought of renunciation, |
abyāpādavitakko
| the thought of non-aversion, |
avihiṃsāvitakko.
| and the thought of harmlessness. |
tattha paṭham-ābhinipāto vitakko,
| 579. Here, directed thought is the first instance |
paṭiladdhassa vicaraṇaṃ vicāro.
| while evaluation is the evaluation of what is thereby received. |
V&V simile: vitakka sees person, vicara scrutinizes their sila
yathā puriso dūrato purisaṃ passati āgacchantaṃ,
| 580. Just as when a man sees someone approaching in the distance |
na ca tāva jānāti eso itthīti vā purisoti vā
| he does not yet know whether it is a woman or a man, |
yadā tu paṭilabhati itthīti vā purisoti vā
| but when he has received [the apperception] that “it is a woman” or “it is a man” or |
evaṃ vaṇṇoti vā evaṃ saṇṭhānoti vā
| that “it is of such color” or that “it is one of such shape,” |
ime vitakkayanto uttari upaparikkhanti
| then when he has thought this he further scrutinizes, |
kiṃ nu kho ayaṃ sīlavā udāhu dussīlo
| “How then, is he ethical or unethical, |
aḍḍho vā duggatoti vā.
| rich or poor?” |
evaṃ vicāro
| This is examination. |
vitakke appeti,
| With directed thought he fixes. |
vicāro cariyati ca anuvattati ca.
| With examination he moves about and turns over [what has been thought].” |
V&V winged bird simile
yathā pakkhī
| 581. and just as a winged bird |
pubbaṃ āyūhati
| first accumulates [speed] |
pacchā nāyūhati
| and afterwards no more accumulates [speed, when gliding], |
yathā āyūhanā evaṃ vitakko,
| so too, thinking is like the accumulation [of speed], |
yathā pakkhānaṃ pasāraṇaṃ evaṃ vicāro anupālati vitakketi vicarati vicāreti.
| and like the out-strechedness of the [gliding bird's] wings is exploring, |
vitakkayati vitakketi,
| [which] keeps preserving the thinkings |
anuvicarati vicāreti.
| and keeps preserving the explorings. |
V&V relationship to right/wrong resolves
kāma-saññāya paṭipakkho vitakko,
| 582. sensual-desire-perceptions (is the) opposite (of) directed-thoughts, |
byāpāda-saññāya vihiṃsa-saññāya ca paṭipakkho vicāro.
| ill-will-perceptions & cruelty-perceptions (is the) opposite of evaluation. |
vitakkānaṃ kammaṃ a-kusalassa a-manasikāro,
| (such) thinking (is an) action (whereby the) un-skillful (gets) no-attention. |
vicārānaṃ kammaṃ jeṭṭhānaṃ saṃvāraṇā.
| (such) evaluation (is an) action (whereby the) forerunners (gets) restrained. |
simile of reciting is literally like vaci dropping out of first jhana, vaci-sankhara = v&v remains! SN 36.11
yathā paliko tuṇhiko sajjhāyaṃ karoti evaṃ vitakko,
| 583. just-as (a) reciter silently recites, such (is) directed-thoughts, |
yathā taṃyeva anupassati evaṃ vicāro.
| just-as that-recitation (he) contemplates, such (is) evaluation. |
simile of vicara needs to finish the job vitakka started
yathā a-pariññā evaṃ vitakko.
| just-like incomplete-understanding, such (is) directed-thoughts, |
yathā pariññā evaṃ vicāro.
| just-like complete-understanding, such (is) evaluation. |
simile of vitakka more superficial, vicara explores/dives deep into meaning
nirutti-paṭisambhidāyañca paṭibhāna-paṭisambhidāyañca vitakko,
| language-analysis & clarity-analysis (is) directed-thoughts, |
dhamma-paṭisambhidāyañca attha-paṭisambhidāyañca vicāro.
| idea-analysis & meaning-analysis (is) evaluation. |
unclear simile
kallitā kosallattaṃ cittassa vitakko,
| good-health; skill (of the) mind (regarding that), is directed-thoughts. |
abhinīhāra-kosallaṃ cittassa vicāro.
| Resolution-in-being-skillful; mind [in that mode], is evaluation. |
simile, vitakka sets task, vicara finishes
idaṃ kusalaṃ idaṃ akusalaṃ
| this (is) skillful, this (is) unskillful, |
idaṃ bhāvetabbaṃ idaṃ pahātabbaṃ
| this should-be-developed, this should-be-abandoned, |
idaṃ sacchikātabbanti
| this (is) to-be-verified, |
vitakko,
| [those are examples of] directed-thoughts, |
yathā pahānañca bhāvanā ca
| these-are abandoned, are developed, |
sacchikiriyā ca
| (these are) verified, |
evaṃ vicāro.
| evaluation [finishes the task set out by vitakka] |
first jhana: what parts mental, physical
imesu vitakka-vicāresu ṭhitassa
| 584. these directed-thoughts-&-evaluations (being) steady, |
duvidhaṃ dukkhaṃ na uppajjati kāyikañca cetasikañca;
| two-fold suffering doesn't arise; bodily & mental; |
duvidhaṃ sukhaṃ uppajjati kāyikañca cetasikañca.
| two-fold pleasure arises; bodily & mental. |
iti vitakka-janitaṃ
| thus directed-thoughts-generates |
cetasikaṃ sukhaṃ
| mental pleasure, |
pīti kāyikaṃ
| rapture (in the) body, |
sukhaṃ kāyikoyeva.
| pleasure (in the) body. |
yā tattha cittassa ekaggatā,
| this here (is) mind's unification, |
ayaṃ samādhi.
| this is undistractable-lucidity. |
iti paṭhamaṃ jhānaṃ
| Such is first jhāna, |
pañc-aṅga-vippahīnaṃ
| five-factors-abandoned, |
pañc-aṅga-samannāgataṃ.
| five-factors-possessed. {vitakka, vicara, piti, sukha, ekaggata or samadhi} |
