answer_v so_o he_o seem_v not_o only_o to_o refuse_v their_o prayer_n but_o also_o instead_o of_o help_n which_o they_o pray_v for_o he_o send_v they_o great_a trouble_n against_o which_o they_o pray_v we_o see_v how_o often_o the_o prophet_n in_o the_o psalm_n complain_v 5._o that_o god_n be_v deaf_a or_o dumb_a and_o he_o hear_v not_o his_o servant_n which_o pray_v unto_o he_o so_o he_o increase_v the_o calamity_n of_o the_o isralite_n under_o pharaoh_n from_o that_o time_n that_o moses_n and_o aaron_n have_v put_v they_o to_o some_o comfort_n of_o deliverance_n so_o this_o poor_a woman_n no_o doubt_n rejoice_v not_o a_o little_a when_o she_o hear_v that_o christ_n be_v come_v into_o those_o quarter_n but_o when_o she_o come_v unto_o he_o who_o she_o be_v glad_a that_o she_o have_v find_v she_o find_v no_o comfort_n at_o all_o in_o he_o but_o great_a discouragement_n and_o discomfort_n if_o any_o thing_n can_v discourage_v a_o strong_a and_o lively_a faith_n we_o see_v therefore_o what_o a_o strong_a temptation_n her_o faith_n endure_v but_o it_o be_v marvel_v how_o she_o can_v retain_v such_o constancy_n of_o faith_n when_o he_o that_o be_v the_o only_a author_n and_o finisher_n of_o our_o faith_n 12._o even_o jesus_n christ_n disdain_v to_o speak_v to_o she_o in_o who_o word_n all_o our_o hope_n and_o trust_n consist_v but_o here_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o christ_n by_o this_o his_o silence_n do_v not_o reject_v her_o suit_n but_o rather_o inflame_v she_o with_o great_a fervency_n to_o continue_v the_o same_o for_o although_o he_o suppress_v his_o audible_a voice_n for_o a_o time_n yet_o in_o time_n of_o this_o silence_n he_o speak_v unto_o she_o by_o two_o most_o effectual_a kind_n of_o speak_v first_o by_o his_o general_a promise_n contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n which_o sound_v so_o loud_o continual_o in_o the_o ear_n of_o her_o heart_n that_o by_o they_o she_o be_v assure_v that_o christ_n call_v she_o unto_o he_o although_o by_o his_o temporal_a and_o particular_a silence_n he_o seem_v to_o reject_v she_o from_o he_o second_o although_o he_o speak_v no_o word_n with_o his_o tongue_n yet_o by_o his_o spirit_n he_o speak_v continual_o to_o her_o soul_n settle_v and_o seal_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n promise_n so_o steadfast_o in_o her_o heart_n that_o she_o know_v it_o be_v unpossible_a for_o she_o to_o miss_v of_o his_o grace_n at_o the_o length_n although_o for_o the_o time_n she_o seem_v to_o be_v refuse_v of_o he_o and_o so_o undoubted_o almighty_a god_n deal_v oftentime_o even_o with_o his_o best_a belove_a child_n when_o he_o defer_v the_o answer_n of_o their_o request_n for_o a_o time_n so_o that_o he_o seem_v to_o hold_v his_o peace_n notwithstanding_o that_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o answer_v they_o when_o they_o pray_v in_o which_o perplexity_n they_o must_v remember_v that_o howsoever_o he_o seem_v to_o keep_v silence_n by_o not_o grant_v their_o request_n yet_o he_o speak_v to_o they_o continual_o in_o his_o promise_n contain_v in_o his_o holy_a word_n by_o which_o they_o must_v be_v assure_v that_o god_n will_v be_v merciful_a unto_o they_o albeit_o that_o he_o withhold_v his_o promise_a help_n for_o a_o season_n so_o christ_n at_o one_o time_n speak_v and_o hold_v his_o peace_n not_o to_o extinguish_v the_o faith_n of_o this_o cananite_n but_o rather_o to_o inflame_v her_o
