Mark 7:28 in context
26The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
27But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.

30And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
