You have two questions here. 1. Both "as shown" and "as seen" are correct. There is a difference in emphasis. "As shown" focuses on what the graph or chart does. "As seen" focuses on what the reader does. You can mix them for variety. 2. I would use the preposition "in" in all these cases.
The question is, why did John say "shown" (durative/time-ambiguous)2 instead of "shown up" (punctual/completed)? To say "he hasn't shown" is avoiding the phrasal verb, and this could be intentional for a meaningful or rhetorical purpose.
Ok. I've read too many Puritans. When should "shown" be used instead of "showed"? For example, is this sentence correct: It must then be in force as perpetual, unless (as we said) a clear and certain repeal of it can be showed in Scripture. Or would "shown in Scripture" be proper now?
