Mark 4:28

•  Telling and Explaining Parables (Matthew 13:10-52; Mark 4:10-34; Luke 8:9-18; 13:18-21)
We assume from the accounts of Matthew and Mark that the parable of the sower was delivered from a boat, although this setting is not found in Luke. There is a change of scene when the disciples come to ask Christ why he is speaking in parables. The current heading is connected to this new scene, where Christ explains the parable of the sower and tells other parables about the Kingdom of God.

Mark 8:8

•  The Loaves and the Fish (Matthew 14:15-21; 15:32-39; Mark 6:35-44; 8:1-10; Luke 9:12-17; John 6:5-13)
According to Matthew and Mark Jesus performs a miracle of this kind twice, the crowd being 5000 men at one occasion and 4000 at the other. Due to the similarity of the miracles, it is often impossible to decide which of the incidents the artwork represents. Hence, all the pictures depicting these miracles sort under the same heading.
