2:1 Now when the birth of Jesus took place in Bethlehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2:2 Saying, Where is the King of the Jews whose birth has now taken place? We have seen his star in the east and have come to give him worship.

8:1 And it came about, after a short time, that he went through town and country giving the good news of the kingdom of God, and with him were the twelve,
8:2 And certain women who had been made free from evil spirits and diseases, Mary named Magdalene, from whom seven evil spirits had gone out,

14:1 At that time news of Jesus came to Herod the king;
14:2 And he said to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he has come back from the dead, and so these powers are working in him.
14:3 For Herod had taken John and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

8:1 In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,
8:2 I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;
8:3 If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.
