Strong's Lexicon therapeuó: To heal, cure, restore to health Original Word: θεραπεύω Word Origin: Derived from a primary word "therapōn" (an attendant, servant) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with healing is רָפָא (rapha, Strong's H7495), which also means to heal or restore. Usage: The Greek verb "therapeuó" primarily means to heal or cure, often used in the context of physical healing. It can also imply serving or attending to someone, reflecting a broader sense of care and restoration. In the New Testament, it is frequently used to describe the miraculous healings performed by Jesus and His disciples, emphasizing divine intervention and compassion. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, healing was often associated with religious practices and deities, such as Asclepius, the god of medicine. However, the New Testament presents Jesus as the ultimate healer, whose authority over sickness and disease demonstrates His divine nature and the inbreaking of God's kingdom. Healing was a sign of the Messiah's arrival and a foretaste of the complete restoration promised in the eschaton.
