It conveys the idea of something being made whole or restored to its original state. In the context of the Bible, it is frequently used to describe the healing of wounds or the restoration of health.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, health and healing were seen as blessings from God, and illness was often viewed as a consequence of sin or disobedience. The concept of "aruchah" would have been understood not only in terms of physical healing but also as a metaphor for spiritual renewal and divine favor. The Israelites believed that God was the ultimate healer, and they often sought His intervention for restoration and wholeness.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
