Mark 7:24-8:10• Introduction• Syro-Phoenician woman meets Messiah, vv 24-30

Mark 7:24-30 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre.[g] He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit came and fell at his feet. 26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.27 ‘First let the children eat all they want,’ he told her, ‘for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.’28 ‘Lord,’ she replied, ‘even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.’29 Then he told her, ‘For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.’30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.

Mark 7:24-8:10• Introduction• Syro-Phoenician woman meets Messiah, vv 24-30 • Deaf mute from Decapolis meets Messiah, vv. 31-37

Mark 7:31-37Then Jesus went out again from the region of Tyre and came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee in the region of the Decapolis.

They brought to him a deaf man who had difficulty speaking, and they asked him to place his hands on him. After Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, he put his fingers in the man’s ears, and after spitting, he touched his tongue. Then he looked up to heaven and said with a sigh, “Ephphatha” (that is, “Be opened”).

And immediately the man’s ears were opened, his tongue loosened, and he spoke plainly. Jesus ordered them not to tell anything. But as much as he ordered them not to do this, they proclaimed it all the more.

People were completely astounded and said, “He has done everything well. He even makes

the deaf hear and the mute speak.”

Isaiah 35Then will the eyes of the blind be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped.6 Then will the lame leap like a deer, and the mute tongue shout for joy.
