This term is used in the New Testament to describe Jesus' healing miracles, highlighting the continuity of God's healing work from the Old to the New Testament.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "riphah" is used to denote healing or a remedy, often in the context of physical or spiritual restoration. It reflects the concept of bringing wholeness or health to an individual or community. In the Hebrew Bible, healing is frequently associated with divine intervention, where God is seen as the ultimate healer.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, health and healing were deeply intertwined with spiritual beliefs. Illness was often viewed as a consequence of sin or disobedience, and healing was seen as a sign of God's favor and forgiveness. Priests and prophets played a significant role in the process of healing, often through prayer, rituals, and sacrifices. The concept of healing extended beyond physical ailments to include spiritual and communal restoration.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>perhaps grain<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>crushed grain (1), grain (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">רִיפָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [feminine]</b></font> dubious; <font size="+1"><b>some grain or fruit</b></font> (such as was spread out to dry (2 Samuel), and also pounded (Proverbs); <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ9</font><sup>2Samuel</sup> <em>as if drying barley groats</em>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">παλάθας</font> <em>cakes of preserved fruit</em>, compare preparation of 'apricot-cheese' Wetzst<sup>ZPV xiv. 2</sup> Nes<sup>Marg.18</sup>, who cites also Almkvist<sup>Kl.
