THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW - Chapter 15 - Verse 27
Verse 27. And she said, Truth, Lord, etc: "What you say is true.
Let it be that the best food should he given to the children. Let the
Jews have the chief benefit of thy ministry. But the dogs, beneath the
table, eat the crumbs. So let me be regarded as a dog, a heathen, as
unworthy of everything. Yet grant one exertion of that almighty
power, displayed so signally among the Jews, and heal the despised
daughter of a despised heathen mother."
