And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and began to cry out, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David my daughter is cruelly demon-possessed.” But He did not answer her a word.Īnd His disciples came and implored Him, saying, “Send her away, because she keeps shouting at us.” But He answered and said, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”īut she came and began to bow down before Him, saying, “Lord, help me!” And He answered and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” But she said, “Yes, Lord but even the dogs feed on the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.” Then Jesus said to her, “O woman, your faith is great it shall be done for you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed at once. Jesus went away from there, and withdrew into the district of Tyre and Sidon. So, let’s begin by reading Matthew 15:21-28. Next, we will study what Matthew 15:21-28 says, and then discover some helpful tools for understanding the meaning of Scripture. First, we will discuss the third reading. The third reading involves discovering the meaning of words and phrases. That will give us more insight into what happened. Then we should compare them to collect additional information.
The same is true if we are studying 1 and 2 Kings and 1 and 2 Chronicles. If we are in the gospels, we should look at the other gospels to discover if they wrote about the event. The second time we read, we want to look for details such as who, what, when, and where, for example. The first time we read a verse, a passage, or a chapter we should try to understand the big picture using a Bible that is accurate to the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.
We suggest once a day for a month when possible. In order to discover what the Bible says, a person needs to read the Scripture passage at least four times. The S symbolizes “What does it say?” The M represents “What does it mean?” The A stands for “How does it apply?” But first we will quickly review the three-letter acronym that we have been using to guide our Bible study. In this study, we will learn about some Bible tools that will be very helpful in understanding the meaning of Scripture.
