REVERENT and REBELLIOUS Ep. #122 - DID JESUS CALL A WOMAN A DOG?

Jesus and His disciples have just been through an extremely stressful time. They had a dust-up with the Pharisees that was not pretty. Jesus decides they need a little getaway. A chance to breathe. He takes them to the region of Tyre and Sidon. There will be no Jews there. It's a pagan place. It's foreign territory. He books this house for them to stay in, and doesn't tell anyone where they are. However, a woman of Syro-Phoenician origin figures out where they are! She comes seeking Jesus. She's desperate. Her daughter has become possessed by an evil spirit. Somehow, she knows Jesus can heal her. She cries out. Lord, Son of David! Help my daughter! He doesn't answer at first. He ignores her. She cries out again. He says, I have only come for the house of Israel. What I have is not for you! She cries out again! He says, it is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to the dogs! Is Jesus being mean? Is he angry? Having a bad day? Is Jesus being racist, misogynistic, downright ugly? Or is He intentionally doing something in a particular way to prove a point? Join us as REV-REB unpacks this in a way that few are courageous enough to venture into!
