From Matthew Chapter 15: A Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon." But Jesus did not answer her a word... But she came and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, help me." And he answered, "It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs." This isn't the end of the story of course. Even so, it's one of the most disturbing passages in the Bible, as Jesus seems to rubbish this poor woman who comes to Him for help. The story is sensitively unravelled by Dr Keith Mascord for us. Indeed, his is the best treatment of this text I have yet heard.
