7:24 {6} And from thence he arose, and went into the {l} borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know [it]: but he could not be hid.

7:24 From thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. Consult the notes on Mt 15:21-28, where the incident of the woman of Canaan is fully given.
7:24 Mt 15:21.
7:24-30 Christ never put any from him that fell at his feet, which a poor trembling soul may do. As she was a good woman, so a good mother. This sent her to Christ. His saying, Let the children first be filled, shows that there was mercy for the Gentiles, and not far off. She spoke, not as making light of the mercy, but magnifying the abundance of miraculous cures among the Jews, in comparison with which a single cure was but as a crumb. Thus, while proud Pharisees are left by the blessed Saviour, he manifests his compassion to poor humbled sinners, who look to him for children's bread. He still goes about to seek and save the lost.
