What does the Bible say about Christ as the healer?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible portrays Christ as the Great Physician, emphasizing His role in healing both physical and spiritual ailments.

In Acts 28:8-10, we see the Apostle Paul healing a sick man, illustrating that it is ultimately Christ who heals. He is referred to as Jehovah Rapha, 'I am the Lord that healeth thee' (Exodus 15:26), signifying both physical healing and the deeper, spiritual healing that He offers. While physical sickness may be temporary, the healing Christ provides for our spiritual ailments leads to eternal life and completeness in Him. Hence, Christ's healing power encapsulates His divine authority over all diseases, emphasizing the necessity of approaching Him in faith for true restoration.
