ο δε ουκ απεκριθη αυτη λογον και προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηρωτουν αυτον λεγοντες απολυσον αυτην οτι κραζει οπισθεν ημων

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?
(References: Luke 19:11)
