Context of Mark 7:29

27Jesus said to her, “First, let the children eat all they want. It’s not right to take the children’s food and throw it to the dogs.” 28She answered him, “Lord, even the dogs under the table eat some of the children’s scraps.” Jesus said to her, “Because you have said this, go! The demon has left your daughter.” 30The woman went home and found the little child lying on her bed, and the demon was gone. 31Jesus then left the neighborhood of Tyre. He went through Sidon and the territory of the Ten Cities to the Sea of Galilee.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 24-30Verses 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.

As Bengel beautifully remarks, Jesus "marvelled" only at two things--faith and unbelief (see Lu 7:9). For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter--That moment the deed was done.Read the comment
