"Many believed on his name, beholding the signs which he did," in Jerusalem (John 2:23).
"Jesus went about healing all manner of diseases" (Matthew 4:23, 9:35).
"They brought unto him all that were sick, holden with divers diseases and torments, possessed with demons, epileptic, and palsied, and he healed them" (Matthew 4:24).
"All that had any sick brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them" (Luke 4:40).
"There came great multitudes, having the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at his feet; and he healed them; insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they
saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing" (Matthew 15:30-31).
"Wheresoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or into the country, they laid the sick in the market-places, and besought him that they might touch the border of his garments, and as many as touched were made whole" (Mark 6:53-56).
"He came into borders of Judea beyond Jordan, and great multitudes followed and he healed them there" (Matthew 19:1-2).
"A great multitude from Judea and Jerusalem, and the region of Tyre and Sidon, came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases, and he healed them all" (Luke 6:17-19).
"All the city was gathered at the door, with their sick and those possessed with demons, and he healed them" (Mark 1:32-34).
"Many other things Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself would not contain the books" (John 21:25).
METHOD OF THE MIRACLES
They were usually wrought by the act of Jesus' will, or by his word; sometimes by his touch, or the laying on of his hands. Occasionally he used saliva.
PURPOSE OF THE MIRACLES
Jesus' miracles imply an exercise of creative power. They were a part of God's way of authenticating Jesus' mission. Jesus said that if he had not done works that no other ever did, they would not have had sin (John 15:24), this indicating that he regarded his miracles as proofs that he was from God. Then, too, his miracles were the natural expression of his sympathy for suffering humanity."
