wmth - Mark:7:24-30

wmth@Mark:7:24 @ Then He rose and left that place and went into the neighbourhood of Tyre and Sidon. Here He entered a house and wished no one to know it, but He could not escape observation.

wmth@Mark:7:25 @ Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by a foul spirit heard of Him, and came and flung herself at His feet.

wmth@Mark:7:26 @ She was a Gentile woman, a Syro-phoenician by nation: and again and again she begged Him to expel the demon from her daughter.

wmth@Mark:7:27 @ »Let the children first eat all they want,« He said; »it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.«

wmth@Mark:7:28 @ »True, Sir,« she replied, »and yet the dogs under the table eat the children's scraps.«

wmth@Mark:7:29 @ »For those words of yours, go home,« He replied; »the demon has gone out of your daughter.«

wmth@Mark:7:30 @ So she went home, and found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
