| Summary: | This article looks at the encounter between Jesus and the Canaanite woman in Matthew 15 and Mark 7 as a spiritual formation event in process, and examines Jesus' 'offending' comment as a wisdom saying. Viewed in this way the Canaanite woman's encounter is not with a rude healer from Nazareth, but with the sage and savior who throws everything out of balance so that she can discover her true balance. |
