* The word "Gentile" refers to nations other than Israel. But Jesus chose this woman, a Gentile and a sinner, as the first person (as far as Scripture records) to whom He revealed that He was the Messiah. He considered her capable of grasping this great spiritual truth.
Subalit pinili ni Jesus ang babaing ito, isang Gentil at makasalanan, na unang pagsabihan (ayon sa nakatala sa Kasulatan) na Siya ang Mesias. Itinuring Niya na kayang maunawaan nitong babae ang kahulugan nitong dakilang katotohanang ito.
