    Jesus had been sent primarily to minister to the Jews, but still helped Gentiles from Tyre and Sidon who came to listen to him teach. He commended the faith of a Syrophoenician woman from that region. Later, Jesus compares Tyre and Sidon, Gentile cities where he had not preached, to Jewish cities where he performed miracles but the people did not repent - saying that if the miracles had occurred in Tyre and Sidon instead, they would have repented, and it would be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon in judgment than the Jewish cities.

    Tyre and Sidon were Gentile cities north of Israel, and Jesus had been sent to the Jews

    (Matthew 15:24). But Jesus still ministered to them: crowds from Tyre and Sidon came to
    see and listen to Him (Mark 3:7–8). Jesus helped a Syrophoenician woman and commended
    her faith (Matthew 15:21–28).

    Jesus mentions Tyre and Sidon in Luke 10:13–14 (see also Matthew 11:20–24), comparing
    them to several cities in which He had performed miracles. These cities of Israel had been
    blessed with Jesus’ presence, preaching, and power, yet they had not repented. Jesus
    pronounces woes on them, stating that Tyre and Sidon, given the same opportunity, would
    have turned from their wickedness and been saved: “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you,

    Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But it will be more
    bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.” Jesus also says Capernaum is
