4:35-41
On that day, with evening having come,
(Jesus) says to them. "Let us
pass over to the other side (of
the sea)." And, leaving the
crowd they took him as he was, in the boat.
Other ships were with him.
And a storm came up with a great gale of wind and the waves smashed
into the ship so that it was filling with water. And he was in the stern of the boat on a
pillow, sleeping. They roused him
and said to him. "Teacher does
it not matter to you that we are perishing?" And being roused, he rebuked the wind and
said to sea. “Be quiet. Be muzzled”. And the wind dropped and there was a
great calm. And he said to
them. “Why are you so fearful like
this? Do you not have faith?” And
then they feared greatly about this and said to one another. “Who
then is this man that both the wind and the sea obey him?"

8:13-21 And leaving them again
he went away to the other side
(of the sea). It happened they
forgot to take loaves of bread on the boat except for one loaf. He (Jesus) warned them saying. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees
and of the leaven of Herod."
They reasoned with one another about this as they did not have any
loaves. And knowing about this he
said to them. "Why do you rationalise because you do not have loaves? Do you not yet understand nor realise? Have your hearts been so hardened and cannot
you see with your eyes or hear with your ears? Do you not remember when I broke five
loaves of bread and fed five thousand people? How many baskets did you fill
with the fragments of bread you took after this?" They said “Twelve”. Then he asked. “And when seven loaves were fed to four
thousand people how many baskets did you fill with the fragments from
this?" And they said “Seven” And he said to them. "Do
you not yet understand?"
