Canaanite Woman

Canaanite Woman of great faith is seen in:

Matthew 15:21. Then when He came out from there Y’shua went into the regions of Tyre and Sidon. 22. And there was a Canaanite woman from those regions, when she came out she cried out saying, “You must have mercy on me right now, Lord, Son of David: my daughter has an evil spirit.” 23. But He did not answer a word to her. And when His disciples drew near to Him they were asking Him saying, “You must send her away, because she is crying out behind us.” 24. And when He answered He said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.” 25. But the one who had come was kneeling before Him saying, “Lord, You must help me.” 26. And He said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and cast it to the little dogs.” 27. Then she said, “Indeed Lord, for even the dogs are eating from the scraps falling from the table of their masters.” 28. Then Y’shua said to her, “O Woman, your faith is great: it must now be to you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed from that moment.
