A 20 page essay that explores the validity of the belief that Jesus had healing powers. References to support this belief are drawn from the Bible, from ancient documents, and from the interpretations of various scholars as well as a scientifically based analysis of one miraculous healing Jesus is purported to have performed. The essay identifies the problems inherent in answering the question and looks at the Jesus' life, where the Bible came from, the spread of the Church, and citations of healings from the Bible. A secondary resource bibliography where support is found for Jesus' life is also provided. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
