Commentary on Matthew 15:28

Theological / Devotional

Great is thy faith. She has met the test; her faith stands firm. She is certain that it is within the power of Christ to bestow the gift of health to her daughter. Compare Christ’s commendation of the centurion (see on Luke 7:9).

That very hour. Like the nobleman’s son (see John 4:43-54) and the centurion’s servant (see Luke 7:1-10), the daughter of the Canaanite woman was healed at a distance, not in Christ’s immediate presence, and as in each of the other cases, healing was immediate, complete.
