Jesus not preaching to the non-jew is the proof that this Jewish prophet came only for the Jew. His mission was not universal. He said-
"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls. before the swine
Meaning that his words(holy) were only for the Jews and not for the non-jew(dogs,swine)

The Samaritan women at the well in John 4 and the Canaanite woman to whom he at first put off saying:
"I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel" (Matthew 15:24).
At that time, Jesus was a Jewish revolutionary and he thought that his mission was only to help the Jews. But seeing her humility and faith, he healed her and after that instructed his disciples to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19).
This would indicate that there were more than just those two women.

Awesome Q, not only did he preach to a non-jew as you put it, but her comment/answer allowed all of us to be considered Gods people. Basic story is, she wanted from Jesus, He refused, she pointed out that she had faith though not a Jew, He agreed, then declared all who would believe would be family. SHE got us in.

It all depends on what you diversify as a Jew.....because the pharisees and saducees and scribes were present when he taught the general populace of the various locations in which he taught.....and he didn't so much "preach" as you say but taught...and the scribes and pharisees and saducees were constantly trying to catch him in his words.

YES HE DID
THE SAMARITAN WOMAN AT THE WELL--WAS A HALF BREED--JEWS WOULD NOT GO THROUGH SAMARIA IF THEY COULD AVOID IT.
HE RESTORED THE EAR OF A ROMAN SOLDIER IN THE GARDEN--BEFORE HIS CRUCIFIXION--AFTER PETER HAD CUT IT OFF.
HE SPOKE TO THE ROMAN MAGISTRATE--AT HIS TRIAL--BEFORE HIS CRUCIFIXION.

He helps you and loves you and will take you to heaven when he comes and you will have a prefect life with no pain or suffering. And everyone will have ENTERNAL liffe. But if you don't, then when he comes you will have to suffer on earth.

I don't know any names, but i was told that Jesus might have visited India and might have preached to Hindus and Buddhists. But i am sorry I don't have any reference for that.
