SCRIPTURE

"But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us." — Matthew 15:23 (ASV)

For she crieth after us (οτ κραζε οπισθεν ημων). The disciples greatly disliked this form of public attention, a strange woman crying after them. They disliked a sensation. Did they wish the woman sent away with her daughter healed or unhealed?
