Comment
>>62144 The woman was a Greek ("Hellenis"), not a Canaanite. She was called a Syro-Phoenician ("Syrophoinikissa") only because of the place of birth, and was called a "little dog" (the literal translation doe) due to being a heathen, not a colored. Chrysostom says: >The more the woman urged her petition, the more He strengthened His denial; for He calls the believers "sons", and the unbelieving dogs.
