Omissions in gLuke

The Gospel of Luke relies heavily on the Gospel of Mark but omits everything in Mark that lies between the miracle of feeding the 5000 (Mk 06:35-44, Lk 09:12-17) to Peter’s acknowledgment that Jesus was the Christ (Mk 08:27-33, Lk 09:18-22).
That is, after following much of Mark closely, Luke omits:
1. Jesus walking on the sea of Galilee (Mk 06:45-52, Mt 14:22-33)
2. Healing many at Gennesaret (Mk 06:53-56, Mt 14:34-36)
3. Controversy with Pharisees over eating with unwashed hands (Mk 07:01-13, Mt 15:01-09)
4. Exorcising the daughter of the woman from Tyre/Sidon (Mk 07:24-30, Mt 15:21-28)
5. Healing (with saliva) the deaf-mute in region of Decapolis (Mk 07:31-37)
6. Feeding the 4000 in the wilderness (Mk 08:01-10, Mt 15:32-39)
7. Controversy with Pharisees over a sign and warning of leaven of Pharisees and Herod (Mk 08:11-21, Mt 16:01-12)
8. Healing the blind man (after two attempts) (Mk 08:22-26)
