The Syrophoenician (Canaanite) woman was desperate to see her cruelly afflicted, demon possessed daughter, healed. She knew Jesus was the answer, but he wasn't responding to her pleas. She was convinced he had the power to heal her daughter, so she persisted. Jesus told her (in so many words) that he came as the Jewish Messiah, and she wasn't Jewish. Because of her response to him, which demonstrated her faith, her daughter was healed. Could this have been a foreshadow of what was to come? Salvation to all who believe not just the Jews?
