dogs - 'A little dog,' more slighting than 'dog' in Greek; but 'little dog' is rather the contrary in English. I would not say 'cur,' fearing it might be too strong, but I have no doubt of the greater contempt expressed by the word; also in ver. 27.
26 But he answered and said, “It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast” [it] “to dogs.”
