Verse in context — Mark 7
And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know [it]: but he could not be hid.
For a [certain] woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
But Jesus said unto her, ‹Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast› [it] ‹unto the dogs.›
And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
