If I had a Twitter, I'd ask Joel Berry if Jesus committed a sin by calling the Syrophenician/Canaanite (Lebanese???) woman a dog (Mark 7:27). Of course he'd pilpul, as his kind is known to do, by saying it was for narrative purposes and providing the woman a way to show another example of how Christ values faith above blood, but ignore the fact that it would be perceived as an insult purely for racial reasons (Christ didn't call other women dogs), by her and those around just as today.
