In the midst of an ongoing debate about health care, what does the Bible say about healing? Here a respected scholar reads biblical texts on health and healing with care and imagination, engaging the reader in lively conversations with the text and with questions of contemporary theological and pastoral concern. Gaiser offers close readings of fifteen key Old and New Testament passages, considering their significance for the church's understanding of healing and its ministry today. The book examines such significant matters as God's role in healing, the relation between sickness and sin, healing and prayer, God's healing and medical science, and healing under the sign of the cross, offering fresh insights for anyone interested in Christian views on healing.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    The author explains his methodology in his introduction and describes it as ‘appreciative enquiry,’ and ‘conversational enquiry.’ These enquiries are applied to ten Old Testament and six New Testament texts. Each is treated in what the author calls’ a case study approach.’ This does not make for ease of reference, let alone ‘skimming’ to find a quick definition, or brief exegesis. Rather a meditative approach is needed by the reader so that the complexities of the text and argument can be more completely understood. It needs time and some concentration to get the best out of this wide-ranging study.
