0:00.0	Hey, everybody, I'm Matt. This is the 10-minute Bible Hour podcast and yesterday we started
0:04.8	what will be the first half or maybe first third. We'll see how it goes of a conversation
0:09.2	about a really weird verbal exchange that ends in a miracle between Jesus and a Canaanite woman
0:16.0	outside the geographic historical boundaries of the Jewish people. Jesus is way out in the middle
0:22.0	and nowhere far from home and weirdly some lady who isn't even Jewish recognizes him calls him
0:28.4	the son of David which is we've established from other parts of Matthew including the first
0:32.1	verse of Matthew is a messianic title and Jesus doesn't even answer and then when he does finally
0:38.4	answer it seems pretty contentious. We're in the process of trying to get to the bottom of why

1:09.9	Tyre and Sidon that's a Gentile region and a Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him
1:14.8	crying out Lord son of David have mercy on me again. She is ascribing to Jesus a very special
1:21.2	very unique title and if we aren't sure that that's what she meant it becomes really clear when
1:25.4	she next says my daughter is suffering terribly from demon possession. This sounds a lot like Matthew
1:31.4	chapter 8 and the also Gentile Centurion who approaches Jesus after the sermon on the mountain
1:37.8	is like my servant said can you help me out and Jesus is like not like kind of handle sickness.
1:41.8	I can handle distance we've got this we're taking care of and he speaks very positively of the guy.
1:46.7	So most people the first time they read Matthew don't take 350 episodes to get this far we're
1:52.4	moving admittedly a little bit slower than most so if you're just reading right through it the
