Genesis 16:
Even though Sarai knew the Lord would give them a son, whe still gave her maidservant to Abram and she became pregnant. Hagar, the maidservant, started belittling Sarai, then Abram gave Hagar into Sarai's hand and Sarai mistreated her. Hagar fled, and the Angel came and met her, and told her to go back. Then she went back, submitted to Sarai, and bore a son for Abram, name Ishmael. Accroding to the Lord, Ishmael would be wild and against all his brothers.
Matthew 15:
Jesus was eating with his disciples and the pharasees came and acused him of breaking old tradition, becuase his disciples were eating without washing their hands. However, Jesus said to them that they were hypocrits, for they worship the Lord with their mouth but not follow God's commandment. Because they were supposed to honor their father, but they told their fathers what they were supposed to receive were used as gifts to God. Jesus said that what goes into the mouth is not unclean, but what comes out of the mouth.
Jesus healed a Canaaite woman's demon-possessed daughter. Jesus said that "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." and then he said that " It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs." so the dogs are non-Israel people, and the bread is the blessings and healings. However, the woman replied, "even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table." from te crumbs the dog will be satisfied. Jesus called her of great faith, so he healed the daughter.
Jesus fed 4000 this time. He was along the sea of Galilee, and people came to Him asking for healing. Jesus had compassion for them for they've been with Him for 3 days and had eaten nothing. So he took the 7 loaves of bread and fish and gave thanks and fed the 4000. There are still left overs. Jesus sent them away, and went to the vicinity of Magadan.
