Matt 15:21-28
This is the one where the Canaanite woman begs Jesus to heal her daughter.
Jesus is harsh and pretty much equates her to a dog...before finally healing the girl.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. KJV
Whassup with that?
Thanks
The woman's daughter was healed, saved, by her mother's faith, such as acting on that she believed her daughter could be healed. Moses married a Gentile, yet his Gentile wife became a wife by blood by circumcising their son. As for the lost sheep of the house of Israel, Ephraim, they will be hunted down (Jeremiah 16:16-18), punished, and then reestablish in the "land I gave to Jacob" (Ezekiel 37:25), whereas the nations/Gentiles, "were I have scattered you/Jacob", "I will destroy completely" (Jeremiah 30:11). The Gentiles remain in their sin, and death and disease dogs their steps.
SEGREGATION between Jews and goyim (gentiles) was an absolute rule. This rule continues to some extent in many religions to this day. Islam is one of them. The LDS is another (Latter Day Saints - Mormons) The only allowable contact is for business transactions and those matters which are necessary to sustain daily life.
This statement -- as it applies to the LDS -- could not conceivably be more false. Seriously, you're so far out in left field on this one that it's not even funny.

I read it this morning and thought, "Doesn't he know Katzpur will read this and call him out on it?"
My experiences (anecdotally) would agree with this statement. In my experience, males are significantly more oblivious (even obtuse) than females.
It depends on what the subject is. I got yelled at once at my last job because I failed to notice one of my co-worker's new haircut. She said "Oh my God! If I had a new car, you would have noticed it before I made it into the building!" This was most certainly a true statement. Sometimes women fail to notice important things like cars.

One other interpretation is the Woman got her daughter vexed by the devil as the mother abused the daughter and gave the daughter food to the dog , and Jesus prophesied this ....... So the woman said the dogs got to eat too , and Jesus said ``good one`` and healed the daughter ...........

Hmm. ..another interpretation was Jesus was jealous of her, since she was having an affair with Thomas, so would do anything to insult her, but to save face in front of the others reluctantly
healed her daughter and just made up that it was 'because of her faith'. And her daughter wasn't even really sick.
She had to come up with a story since she just came outta Thomas's tent, see?
