In Mark chapter 7 (followed by Matthew 15:26-28), Jesus is said to have called Gentiles 'dogs' and only agreed to help a Gentile woman when she humbly accepted that description: (Mark 7:27) "But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs." This was a racial slur.
