This agrees with verse 16 which states, that the woman "Satan had kept bound for eighteen long years." In the same manner the devil afflicted Job with various diseases (Job 2, see also Ps. 78:49 [2]). He further writes that, "the devil, therefore, made this woman crooked and bent, to compel her always to look down upon the earth." [3]

In most cases, Christian authors associate each miracle with specific teachings that reflect the message of Jesus. [10]In The Miracles of Jesus, H. Van der Loos describes two main categories of miracles attributed to Jesus: those that affected people (such as Jesus healing the blind man of Bethsaida), or "healings", and those that "controlled nature" (such as Jesus walking on water).
In the Gospel of John, the multitude was attracted to Jesus because of the healing works he performed, and the feeding of the multitude was taken as a further sign that Jesus was the Messiah. The Church of the Multiplication in Tabgha is the site where many Christians believe the feeding of the five thousand to have taken place.
Jesus healing the sick by Gustave Dore, (19th century) According to the Gospel of Mark, as Jesus passes through Gennesaret, just after the account of him walking on water, all those who touch the edge, or hem, or fringe of his cloak are healed: "When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there.
