- In Matthew 15 Jesus has a somewhat bizarre and mysterious encounter with the Canaanite Woman. When the Canaanite Woman asks Jesus for help to heal her her daughter, he responds by saying that he came for lost sheep of Israel and just as you do not give food to the dogs, so too, he could not help the Canaanite woman.
But, due to her persistence, he ends up healing her daughter.
What do we make of this encounter of Jesus and the Canaanite Woman? Watch this video with Dr. Brant Pitre and find out.

This commentary is wonderful and provides so many insights and biblical references. Dr. Pitre is one of the most brilliant theologians whom I really respect and this passage in the Gospel about Our Blessed Lord and the Canaanite woman is very striking and mysterious. Imagine my chagrin when the video ended before the conclusion. I hope we get the next part too. Praise God for the work of Dr Pitre.
They would be looking for a paid subscription to their entire series. That's not any criticism of them; they need to keep their ministry going. I may subscribe at one point; in the meanwhile I'm using the superthanks to give them back a little for this great content.
Dr. Pitre, you are amazing scholar. God bless your life, family and ministery. Greetings from Colombia
Not sure about anyone else but I love hearing where things get referenced in the O.T. Thanks Dr Brant.
Dr Pitre... you're my favourite theologian... You are an excellent teacher
Damned good commentary. I love this channel.
Darn good.
Cliffhangers are not allowed in Bible studies! 😆 Please post part 2!
I find it most interesting how reference to JESUS 10 times and the woman was persistent in her mission to free her child from the demon-crats by asking three times with adoration, hope and FAITH. FAITH being her strong point in paying homage, and asking JESUS showing humility and allegence in her third request. Similarly, we've found thst others throughout the OT and NT who also were not Hebrew and JESUS blessed them via their Persistent FAITH (a Grace) from GOD, which JESUS surely recognized SPIRITUALLY.
EXAMPLES Include: the Centurian desiring the healing of his servant, the old women giving a mit - all she had, the women with the bleeding issue, Mary in the First Joyful Mystery, and then all the Mysteries, amongst many more. The point being those who display GREAT Hope, Love and FAITH are rewarded in kind. Those without, not so much, for their lack of investing in the Goodness of GOD+++
Good job the Knights of the Sacred Heart of JESUS from Auburn, NY, during our stydy group on this subject this evening, and ALL PRAISE, GLORY, HONOR & MAJESTY to our LORD GOD Almighty! Amen, Amen, I say again! AMEN +++
Blessed Mary "THANK YOU" for your Sincere Commitment under GOD for the, to bringing mankind back to the sheepfold! AMEN+++
Go to yhe Bible and figure out why you can't have thay partb2
They teach for a living. I think this is a balanced way to evangelize while attracting people to their ministry.
Dr Pitre is literally the best modern expositor of scripture I have ever come accross.
Thanks for your ministry Dr Pitre.🙏😍
Fantastic commentary. Eagerly waiting for the next part !
Please, continue with a second part, we are missing the best!
Thank you Dr. Pitre.
It ended just when it was getting really good! Hahaha!
he's taunting us!
Thank you catholic production
This story applies to the rest of us as well. Faith is needed to have our genuine requests granted by God. Not only faith, persistence in asking too like our Lord taught in another of His parables. Thank you Dr. Pitre!
Starts with a state of Grace.
The Context really helps me fully understand what is going on to get the real picture . I will wait for the 2nd part.
Wonderful session. 👍
This is truly some excellent commentary, I love the mention you made to the lost tribes, this is all super important when we discuss the topic of who is present in the promised land in the time of Christ and even now in contemporary times
Thank you
Very good reflection🙏🙏🙏God bless you 🙏🙏
Excellent explanation May God bless You!
Thank you Dr. Brant Pitre. One of my favourite stories in the Gospels...she argues with JESUS, she knows her scripture...she has great faith.
I think this kind of men/women arguing with God or Jesus for mercy, even if undeserved, is characteristic of the Bible. In the Book of Genesis (18:23-33), for example, Abraham pleads with God to spare the people of Sodom if there were to be only 10 innocent men among them and God does relent. Unfortunately in Sodom there were apparently none, but the Canaanite woman had a mother's deep love for her child on her side
This is enlightening as always...How can one access the full video? Thanks
Thank you for this video. From Ireland ☘️
This was a major cliffhanger!!!!😂🤣 just when my mind was getting it you stopped it. I'll be back for the next video hopefully if i am not so tired from work. I am amazed of how much Christ was close to the Jews than to the rest of the world but nonetheless we are one and remain in faith knowing that he will come back for us💚👍👍👍
Thanks, Dr. Pitre. Excellent as always.
Dr. Brant Pitre, you're great theologian, next to Bishop Fulton J Sheen. With help of the Holy Spirit you're able to study every minutia details including grammar to give us clear vision, wisdom and insightful reference to open our heart and mind, in knowing Living God's plan for us. Your explanation is excellent. You tell us slowly & clearly, in very simple language. Many bible learners, seminarians, deacons, priest and theologian around the world, watch your videos and read your books, to quench the word of God and in knowing hidden truth behind very word you explain.
We continue to pray for you in continuing your service to HIM and Blessed Mother of God, until everyone enters to Heaven...🙏🏻
I enjoyed it very much but the video was cut short where is the rest of it ? Is there is a part 2 ?
My favorite gospel passage !!!!!!!!!
Me too. From Ireland ☘️
Thank You Dr. Pitre
This is how people called other dogs
This us similar
Story of Jacob wrestle with GOD
The Persistent Woman was like Jacob who wrestle with GOD dont want to let GO unless GOD will give HIM a Blessing.
🎉❤amazing
I think Dr. Pitre is fantastic
I've always thought that Jesus and the woman had an understanding between them, that he was playing a role to make a point to the others and that she was playing along with him though remaining sincere in her request. Such a moving account.
I think you're right about Jesus playing a role. But I don't agree that the Canaanite woman was; in fact, she had no idea how Jesus would react. Isn't that the whole point of this Gospel teaching? Seems Jesus plaed a role to see what reaction He got from her. And bingo! She said the right thing because of her faith.
I’ve always been surprised that Jesus didn’t say “Woman, great is thy humility “!
He called her a dog and she was like “yep”.
She knew she wasn't worthy of any goodness but she was willing to do anything for her daughter and agreed to be called so
How cleverly Jesus dealt with the canaanite women was commendable...

@@poppiethestable4569 - poor poppie, may the Lord Jesus forgive you, may your heart soften and turn to Him.
can you show me the continution of this video? I want to listen .
Jesus is telling us that we have to step out in faith persistently even if we feel rejected.
generally , in some languages nouns are either male or female, no? I have learned my church identifies as "female" being described as the bride, right? So when I hear this passage explained to me by Dr. Pitre the story that I tell myself is
the Canaanite woman is a sort of symbolism or allagory or collected metafore that describes our church as a group. Yes, US.
After all we all are sinners, doing stuff that's bad as the Canaanite's . We all fall short, all a bit dog too ...woof wolf in sheeps clothing and without Jesus... we are made of the same stuff as dogs. Profound gratitude Heavenly Father for the gift of salvation thru your beautiful Son Jesus in unity of the Holy Spirit the highest good for all ...bless us.
it is not SOMEONE ELSE'S DAUGHTER ...we are She.
btw. all dogs go to heaven, yep I'd say so.
Thank you doctor for interpreting the King's English for me, lovely, really really lovely.
This interpretation is perfect and on point from a historical and Jewish context. Thank you
Part 2?
To help you understand better, the word dog in ancient Greek is κύων but the suffix -άριον is used in diminutive nouns, meaning words that express smaller or more tender forms of the object they describe.
For example:
"δάκτυλος" (finger) → "δακτύλιον" (small finger) "κύων" (dog) → "κυνάριον" (small dog/puppy)
"πλοῖον" (ship) → "πλοιάριον" (small ship)
This suffix gives the word a diminutive or affectionate character, often indicating something smaller or cuter than usual. So the word dog here is meant as a loving puppy
I think Jesus did not mean to say harshly, but to use words to mean a spontaneous response. The "dog" in this sentence when seen from the original Greek, connotes small dog, or domestic dog, and does not mean dog in general (there are two types of dog connotations in Greek). So the main purpose of the sentence is to show priority to the children first, then to the small dog / pet. So this sentence is not meant to be harassing, it only indicates the order of feeding.
Jesus' first concern was devoted to the nation of Israel (see also Matt. 10: 6) to save them as the fulfillment of God's promise mentioned in the Old Testament, and only then was that salvation directed also to other nations. Although his main focus was the nation of Israel, Jesus did not limit his ministry, and Jesus also directed His attention and work of salvation to the Gentiles, for example in the miraculous healing of a centurion's servant in Capernaum (Luke 7: 1-10); and Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman (John 4) and of course, His last message before ascending to heaven to His disciples was that they spread the gospel to all nations (Matt. 28: 19-20).
warm regards from Indonesia.
This is how I always thought of this passage.
She was a woman
An outsider
Outcast
Sinner
Looked down upon
Yet she knew who God was and knew even the scraps of Gods love would be powerful enough to heal her daughter. She proclaimed Gods mercy. Jesus let her do so as an act of faith. His silence was as always a space for others to witness how to ask God for all He has .
Kathy! Thank you. Brilliant insight, You are right. It just clicked. Wow. Thank you!🦋
To add...if curious..
Giants: Sons of the God
by Douglas Van Dorn
is a highly researched (from every angle) book on the Nephilim /Giant info in ancient history and the Bible. The book of Enoch also has references.
Dr. Petrie I would love you to read this or comment on the many books and solid research on this subject. Seems like civilized society does not like to think of this. But as you said, the Canaanites were evil to the core. Since the spiritual realm can do anything why couldn’t satan enter God’s humans? I believe this and I also believe we
absolutely do not have all the answers and mysteries exist! This may be one.
God bless you!
I am that I am
Glory to the Name of Jesus, the I AM
And whats the conclusion???
Jesus granted her request
She’s saying: Canaanite lives matter! Who are they in our lives?
How good is that you're Catholic!!!!
Didn't many of those from the 10 tribes from the north land, actually migrate to Jerusalem to avoid the Assyrians? I believe it says there was a big population boom & they built another wall to encompass all the new migrants. Therefore were the tribes really lost?
I've watched a video by Sam Shamoun (czcams.com/video/vqgTWLnUz6I/video.html around 1:46:00) explaining that in Matthew 15 the greek word used was not 'dogs' but 'puppies', not the term used in the scriptures to name a wicked person but a loved being inside of the house, still lesser than the children of course but a lot less 'rude' to the woman.
It is also interesting here that Jesus uses the Greek word for "puppy" or "house dog" (κυναρίοις), whereas the word for dogs which represents evil people is κύνες.
The word Jesus uses is diminutive, and literally means, "Little dog".
Very true. In fact , in Italian it is correctly translated with " cagnolini", little dogs and not " cani", dogs. Jesus softens the use of the word
@@shelhadeshe2783 amen sister/brother. God bless you.
I thought Gerasene Demoniac was a thrash metal band. 😋
Very interesting but with Flaws, the disciples all hung around Jerusalem, there's No mention of other places. Paul who did travel and spread the word was chosen by Christ Jesus Act 9 verse 15 to go to the Gentiles. During Christ years on earth, there was temple worship and the 10 commandments were in full effect. Alot of adlibing and a cliffhanger, Really the word of God?
I don't care that he didn't send her away I don't care that he praised her faith I don't care that he did as she asked. He called her and every gentile a dog. This is affecting my faith.
I feel the same. 😢 I wanted to convert Christianity but this passage gives me doubts.

”When he had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.” And he said to him, “I will come and heal him.” But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” When Jesus heard this, he marveled and said to those who followed him, “Truly, I tell you, with no one in Israel have I found such faith. I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” And to the centurion Jesus said, “Go; let it be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed at that very moment.“

Why was the gospel to go to Israel first?
they are the chosen people because from them comes the Christ, the Jews first then us
marcokite Thank you for the explanation, Ive wondered through the years, what appeared to be a strong show of favoritism makes more sense because of Jesus.
@@juliesherwood8535 The Jews were chosen by God to go out to proclaim His Word. Jews tasked to do the work of God.
The Jews first proclaimed God the Father to the world. Their being "chosen" wasa blessing and a curse, read their history! They were slaves, they starved in the desert, etc.
In addition, to the canine's mindset, that's perfectly normal: that alpha eats first... that's how they perceive the world, so if you feed it first, it'll really be confused.
He is doing the same what Jesus did to the Cannanite woman 😅😍
Simple fact is when Mothers are aborting their babies voluntarily then there is something extremely wrong. The problem we should be addressing is what circumstances brings them to the point where they would prefer not to give them life at all, and why aren't they speaking?
The more money you take the more laws you can break is the theme of this paradigm. Only allowing those who pay to be educated in their schools the right to be certified felons for a living their motivation is driven by a pure animal instinct to hold control over their pride. Competing for the most financial power the elite influence the politicians by promising campaign funds under the condition they pass laws which raise taxes, and fees for the services they provide.
The challenge is in order to maintain the illusion he is superior his DNA is programmed to automatically respond to subdue any threat to his dominant position. Triggering the flight or fight reaction depleting blood from the brain necessary to compute basic logic law enforcement becomes overwhelmed with the sensation to violently attack. Taking their competition to the point of death they hunt, and catch their prey inflicting brutal punishment.
Following the example of their superiors they learn to take advantage of their position of power, and target a certain class of people. Selling, manufacturing, and administering drugs taking advantage of their state of dependency they drain them of their resources to be released from the pain they inflict.
Sucking up all time to benefit them one after another the same hierarchy of heads who claim to protect the vunerable betray me beyond anything I thought possible. Forced to conform to a dictator to have access to resources I earn to survive was not part of the agreement, and breaking the silence nothing could be more cruel then to make false promises of protection, and equal rights only to bait me into a vunerable position once my child is born. I refuse to let my daughter think it is normal to be treated lower then a dog. She is only four, and she desrves a better life.
Rewarding himself the financial value of my time does not raise the judges intelligence above mine, and despite what Mr. Green had hoped to achieve serving as entertainment for his delusions of grandeur is not my priority. Crossing the line I am stripped of my title, and forbidden to speak. Appearing superior his law serves to commit sins against me not prevent them. These laws are for people who are sexually immoral, for homosexuals and slave traders, for liars and oath breakers, and for those who do anything else that contradicts the right teaching. 1:10 1st Timothy
It does not speak well for the effectiveness of the court in regards to apprehending the criminal when a prostitute convicted of murder is set free to take over my home, and use my four year old girl for “debt bondage" as the end result. Implying I should have to forfeit my American citizenship, and let dangerous criminals raise my child to teaching her to raid through homes, and steal property for a living is not the example I would choose to set as acceptable behavior. Just as you would not give all the boys control over the lunch money for the girls in a school setting the same should apply in the household for obvious reasons.
What grounds would the judge have to persecute me or more importantly my child for the problems which arise as a result of him officially taking responsibility as dictator? Left formless, and empty the darkness surrounds me, and as far as he knows I'm just a insignificant ghost who suffered, and died of immense torture forsaken. czcams.com/video/vWQqwlX2TIY/video.html Forced to provide his responsibilities for free had he done his job then why is a man claiming my body as his, and I am only a spirit. The Ark sparks a memory, and driven by pure instinct DNA is programmed to operate without the need for a logical brain, and as new threats present themselves they shape the species to automatically avoid certain behavior.
I’m a American Parent, and being a authority figure I rise above childish behavior with the intent to keep the vunerable from harm. They trust in me to protect them, and when my authority is honored I prevent violence eliminating the threat before a tragedy occurs. When my law is followed it serves to prevent pain, and if my intentions were to leave my child to suffer, and die I wouldn't bother establishing rules at all let alone raise her to life. czcams.com/video/VkQAZ2qr6Gg/video.html
Acknowledging the value of my time a true American Father would honor his vows to treat me as himself. Holding true to his pledge of allegiance he would make me a financial offer we both agreed upon, and I could invest my time into providing healthy activities to benefit my child's development instead. Improving the standard of living I would have the choice to
provide my child a safe home free of harmful influences which suggests resorting to violence aimed at authority is acceptable behavior, and would not be forced to tolerate abuse. Eliminating the possibility of damage caused by fear of being harmed will return the body to a normalized state naturally reducing the need to medicate. czcams.com/video/kRBhg7Z9YR0/video.html
For centuries my HOLY FAMILY OF DAVID have taught our children by example to be loyal to the LAW OF GOD, because we understand setting a poor example would jeopardize their lives.

The dog word was for people who didn't belong to the same group, much like calling someone an outsider who has no part inside the clan. The Catholic Church is Israel.
Whoa, that's no longer within the context of the reading, brother. Pls.be careful, that's already what is called 'eisegesis', and that is wrong.
"That's partially correct"? No, that's absolutely correct. Christ was ONLY sent to redeem HIS own people. Stop the lies. #wakeupJacob
LoL
Jesus called the Canaanite woman “a dog” because he was racist and Jewish supremacist. And healed her when she agreed with him and shown her faith. Also he knew her heart and still called her a dog. Which means it’s not about being believer or not, it’s about the racial status of Canaanites. I’m open to discussion, change my mind.
Absolutely not just read the whole passage Jesus was clearly testing Canaanite women faith infront of his disciples.
@@Doctor_Fate5 Jesus KNEW that the woman was the believer before she came/ Still called her a dog. And when she showed that she is the believer and had proven it, he never said she wasn't a dog.
Yeah if this is true jesus deserves to be demoted to just "messenger" because that was some morally questionable shit I just heard from him...

That is more than his disciples got in the same chapter “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” (Mt 8:26). Funny thing, Jews would critique the NT makes the non-jews more sympathetic and humble.
Do you also get triggered by Jesus calling Peter of Satan (Mt16) or the pharisees of vipers (Mt 23)? Or God calling Jerusalem a prostitute (Jeremiah 16:35) or Israel a harlot (Amos)?
I guess you may have a problem in understanding the call to humility.

So Jesus (God) called some of his own creation dogs?. Jesus never had to question any jew he healed. Not even those who were ungrateful (the blind men).The truth here is: Jesus was sent to the jews and not the world. religion is man made. Every religion creeates a racial supriority order for the people it originates from. religion is BS.
I see Jews feeling superior because of Abraham, Arabs because of Mohammed, Indians because of Budha etc. Lesson here is No race is superior to any other. Funny how europeans are trying to link the roots to the 12 tribes. Your are from europe and not Judea

I agree but calling us dogs seems wrong.
nothing that the Word made flesh did can be wrong. He was giving her a riddle which He knew she would follow
I think calling her a “dog” was more in reference to her being a Canaanite than a Gentile.
Im jewish, and everything else.
Ahh, that makes sense. I’ve seen your comments on other Catholic Productions videos and I was wondering what your faith was. ☺️
And who is Israel? Their Capitol is Samaria and they are called Samaritan's. They descended from Jacob/Israel, it was prophesied they would be scattered as the Sands of the Sea and to become a great Nation and Company of Nation. Their DNA is R-M 269. The same as the majority of Europeans with the highest concentrations in Ireland, Scotland, and the Germanic people.

A mother comes to him regarding her child and he calls her a dog?
When I first read the passage, I was horrified. Disgraceful. I left the church because of it. The "Son of God" is just another Jewish narcissistic supremacist, like the ones killing children in Gaza today.
He did not called her a dog just read the whole passage.
He was testing Canaanite women faith infront of his disciples.
