- Sending Out the Apostles (Matthew 10:5-42; Mark 6:7-11; Luke 9:1-5;14:25-35)
Matthew connects the theme of the cost of discipleship to this occasion. This is the reason for adding the text from Luke 14 to the list on the present page.

- 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.

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.

When it is hard to decide whether an artwork depicts the Jews' accusations at Pilate's initial interrogation or the scene accompanying and following the Barabbas episode, where the Jews persuade the governor to convict Jesus, the artwork is connected to the subject of the interrogation and accusations
