23 Ինք ո՛չ մէկ խօսքով պատասխանեց անոր. իսկ իր աշակերտները մօտենալով՝ կը թախանձէին իրեն ու կ՚ըսէին. «Արձակէ՛ զայն, որովհետեւ կ՚աղաղակէ մեր ետեւէն»:

The Faith of the Canaanite Woman

By Junchol Lee


Ut pergas pasco dum audis, audi in fenestra nova.

The mother of child who was demon possessed came to Jesus for help, but Jesus said to her, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." She was described as a Canaanite woman! Yet, her faithfulness moved the heart of Jesus to the end that Jesus declares, "Woman, great is your faith!" What was at the heart of her faithfulness that was enough to move the heart of God?

(Notae: Luke 19:11)
