Jehovah-Ra-faw

 

*Jehovah-Ra-faw*

-Eddy Joel Silsbee

 

Greetings to you in the name of our Healer Jesus Christ.

 

We are looking at the names being called by the Character of God.

*Note*: These are not names of God - rather these are words that refer to His character.

 

Today we look at the word *Jehovah Raa-faw’*

 

Meaning : The Lord that Heals

 

This Hebrew word does not appear as it is in English Bible but with its translated meaning.

 

Jehovah is translated as "The Existing One" or "Lord." The chief meaning of Jehovah is derived from the Hebrew word Havah meaning "to be" or "to exist." It also suggests "to become" or specifically "to become known" - this denotes a God who reveals Himself unceasingly.

 

Rapha (râpâ') means "to restore", "to heal" or "to make healthful" in Hebrew.

 

When the two words are combined - Jehovah Rapha - it can be translated as "Jehovah Who Heals." (cf. Jer 30:17; Jer 3:22; Isa 30:26; Isa 61:1; Psa 103:3). Jehovah is the Great Physician who heals the physical and emotional needs of His people.

 

Bible References : Exodus 15:26; 2 Chronicles 7:14; Psalm 6:2; 41:4; 103:3; 147:3; Isaiah 19:22; 30:26; 57:18-19; Jeremiah 3:22; 17:14; 30:17; Matthew 8:7; 10:1; Luke 4:18

 

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. 1Pet. 2:24
