The Little Dogs and The Syrophoenician Woman

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus heals anyone who comes to Him in faith. He healed Jew and non-Jew until He came across a certain gentile woman. When the Syrophoenician woman came before Jesus on behalf of her demon-possessed daughter, Jesus said these famous words, 'It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.' Why did Jesus call this woman and her daughter dogs? What does 'dogs' mean in the Bible? Join ArieRashelle as she searches through Scripture to find the reason behind Jesus' seemingly harsh response in her video, The Little Dogs and The Syrophoenician Woman.
