1. **Physical Healings:**
Jesus performed numerous physical healings, curing people of
various ailments and disabilities. These healings included
restoring sight to the blind (e.g., the blind man at Bethsaida),
enabling the lame to walk, and healing those with chronic
illnesses (e.g., the woman with the issue of blood).
2. **Miraculous Feeding:**
While not traditional healings, the miraculous feedings, such
as the feeding of the 5,000 and the 4,000, demonstrated Jesus'
ability to provide for physical needs. These events highlighted
not only his compassion but also his power over scarcity.
3. **Demon Exorcisms:**
Jesus also engaged in the casting out of demons, freeing
individuals from spiritual oppression. In doing so, he revealed
his authority over the spiritual realm and demonstrated the
arrival of God's Kingdom, where darkness and evil are
confronted and overcome.
7. **Symbolic Meanings:**
Some healings carried symbolic meanings, conveying spiritual
truths. For instance, the healing of the paralytic lowered
through the roof symbolized the forgiveness of sins,
emphasizing the holistic nature of Jesus' redemptive work.
