Matthew 15:20-24

These are the things that defile the person; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the person.” The Faith of a Canaanite Woman

Jesus went away from there, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.

And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and began to cry out, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely demon-possessed.”

But He did not answer her with even a word. And His disciples came up and urged Him, saying, “Send her away, because she keeps shouting at us!”

But He answered and said, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
