Bible commentaries

Also known as Yahweh Rapha. Jesus proved that he was Jehovah Rapha in healing the sick, the blind, the paralyzed and casting out demons. Jesus also heals his people from sin and injustice (Luke 5:31-32). god is the healer of his people and in the most difficult scenario God shows his glory. According to Exodus 15:22 the people of Israel were in the desert, three days had passed without any water and the water they found was bitter water. But God showed his glory transforming the situation. Is at this moment when he appears for the first time in the Scriptures as Jehovah Rapha (the Lord heals) after a new revelation of God to his people in the Bitter Lake. Why did the healing God manifest himself to his people sweetening salty and bitter waters? This coastal region is very close to the Red Sea and this area is rich in sodium (the Dead Sea is named that way because of its high mineral content and salinity). This show us that where there is death Christ brings life; that in the middle of the desert God can make a garden bloom; that in the middle of your difficulties God can show his glory; that in the middle of your curse God can establish his blessings, for he is God almighty. Everything is possible to God.
