If you notice ,the above verses are all about dogs.
All the verses in the KJV about dog or dogs.

There was nothing ever nice to say about dogs.
They were not nice animals then.

So, has the nature of dogs changed?
I know people who consider their dogs kind, loving and loyal.

In fact they could be endowed with all the fruits of the spirit.

So much for our previous discussion about whether dogs go to heaven...
They are portrayed as eaters of human flesh.

They are vicious, scavengers, greedy, evil...

So as I am wont to do, I ran it past the dog, Ross's dog.

He said men were put on the earth to have dominion over the animals.
Conversely animals were placed under man's dominion.

So he said the glory of the animal reflects on his master, it makes the master look good to Him who has dominion over him. But should the master wish to reward it, that should be done during the mans lifetime.

Got it.
The mutt needs his tea.

So……Dogs were an abomination …. I guess that means they still are. The dogs that roamed about scavenging for whateve they could find, were they domestic dogs or feral? Were they dogs who were fed, trained and cared for … or were they homeless, masterless starving outcasts?
Jesus said to the woman off Samaria … is it right to take the bread from the children’s table and feed it to dogs?” ….you outcast people of Samaria, who were abominable in the sight of God, is it right to give to you what has been prepared for the children of Israel?
The woman answered “No Lord, but the dogs can eat the crumbs that fall from the children’s table” … witty, insightful answer. Maybe they were both smiling at one another, enjoying the repartee, but very conscious also of the seriousness of the conversation.
Jesus knew it was in God’s plan to give the bread to the dogs …the Samaritans (who had once been included with the children of Israel), and also the Gentiles ….. heathen people who followed other gods, and whose religious practices were often abominable. The Children of Israel had rejected the Bread that God had prepared for them and was offering to them.(see Romans 11,especially verse 11) So it was right to give it (or Him) to the Samaritans and the Gentiles. Anything the children of Israel did not want was available to them. He was pleased with the woman’s faith that had allowed her to understand the justice of God….. and also that God would be true to what was just. She seemed also to understand that Jesus was the Bread that was on offer.
So she was a hungry, homeless, masterless dog ….. but she became one that belonged, and was loved, and was fed and trained to new, better ways. ….. and so a dog, by instinct a wild, savage creature,…..by love becomes a gentle, loyal, obedient and loving “best friend”.
