U8.3.3 - Show understanding of at least one miracle, explaining how it shows either Jesus’ power: (i) over evil (e.g., Mk 5:1-20); or (ii) over sickness (e.g., Mk 2:1-12); or (iii) over death (e.g., Mk 5:21-24, 35-43); or (iv) over nature (e.g. Mk 4:35-41).
U8.3.4 - Describe what is meant by the moral sense of scripture, explaining how through the care he shows for the lost, the sick and the outcast, Jesus also reveals something about who he is and God’s special care for marginalised people, making links with the Catholic belief that the kingdom belongs especially to the poor and the lowly.
