Syro-Phoenician (Mark 7:25-30/Matthew 15:21-28)





WHEN THE WOMAN APPROACHED JESUS

HER FACE SET LIKE FLINT

EXPECTING SCORN

SHE WAS SYRO-PHOENICIAN

AND FEMALE



ONE WAS LOW

THE OTHER LOWER

BUT NEED FORCED HER TO SAY

HEAL MY DAUGHTER



HE ANSWERED

AS SHE EXPECTED

IT IS NOT RIGHT

TO TAKE THE BREAD OF ANGELS

AND FEED IT TO DOGS



UNDETERRED

SHE SPARRED WITH HIM

EVEN DOGS ARE FED FROM THE TABLE



HIS EYES SOFTENED

HIS WHOLE MANNER CHANGED

HE'D BEEN BESTED IN AN ARGUMENT



GO

YOUR DAUGHTER IS HEALED
