Faith: Faith in Christ: The Syrophoenician Woman
Source: Nav
Matthew 15:22–28
And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.” / But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.” / He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
Mark 7:25–30
Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet. / Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. / “First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
