"A Caananite woman from that vicinity come to him,crying out"Lord,Son of David,have mercy on me! My Daughter is suffering terribly from demon-possesion.Jesus did not answer a word.So his disciple came to him and urged him,*"Send her away,for she keep crying out after us."He(Jesus) answered,"I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."The woman come down and knelt before him "Lord,Help me!"She said.He (Jesus) replied,"It is not right to take the children's(Jews) bread,and toss it to their dogs(Gentile)"."Yes,lord,but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters table" Then Jesus answered,"Woman,you have great faith!Your request is granted.' And her daughter was heal from that very hour'
(Matthew 15:22-28 NIV Bible)
This is why Jews don't take him as the Messiah,I guess,because what he said is seen as disgraced toward the Jewish society.
How can God said this?
