How are we to read and understand stories of Jesus healing the
lame, deaf, blind, and those with a variety of other maladies?
Pilch takes us beyond the historical and literary questions to
examine the social questions of how the earliest followers of Jesus
and ancient Judeans understood healing, what roles healers played,
and the different emphases on healing among the gospels. In his
comparative analysis, the author draws on the anthropology of the
Mediterranean as well as the models employed by medical
anthropologists to understand peasant societies and their
health-care systems.Utilizes social-science modelsFeatures a
