What does it mean that Jesus is the great physician?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus as the great physician signifies His authority and ability to heal both physical and spiritual ailments of His people.

The title 'great physician' ascribed to Jesus reflects His divine authority over both physical and spiritual matters. He performed miraculous healings during His ministry, demonstrating power over every form of disease and illness. However, equally important is the spiritual aspect—Jesus primarily came to address the root cause of humanity's plight: sin. By healing our spiritual diseases through the new birth, He restores us to a right relationship with God, making us whole. This holistic care affirms His role not merely as a healer of sickness but as the ultimate restorer of our souls.
