The interaction between Jesus and the Syrophoenician woman in Mark 7 is profoundly baffling. He definitely call her a dog, and not even a nice kind of dog, and she then quips back at him. They depart friends? Her daughter certainly receives the healing love of God. So, what do we do with all of this? It is dark humor, or cultural bias, or an example of Christ growing as a human, or an example of the humility that we all should practice before God? Maybe, it's all of that. Whatever it is, it certainly shows the breadth of God's love.
