Max Neuberger, writing in his "History of Medicine" states concerning the Mosaic laws:
{{cquote|The commands concern prophylaxis and suppression of epidemics, suppression of venereal disease and prostitution, care of the skin, baths,[17] food, housing and clothing, regulation of labour, sexual life, discipline of the people, etc. Many of these commands, such as Sabbath rest, [[circumcision]], laws concerning food (interdiction of blood and pork), measures concerning menstruating and lying-in women, and those suffering from gonorrhoea, isolation of lepers, and hygiene of the camp, are, in view of the conditions of the climate, surprisingly rational.<ref name="Neuburger, Max 1910, p. 38">Neuburger, Max.

The Bible indicates that healing is a primary attribute of God's nature, grace, and power, encompassing both physical and spiritual restoration, with many examples and promises of healing throughout both the Old and New Testaments (Exodus 15:26; Psalm 103:2-3; Psalm 147:3; Jeremiah 30:17; Matthew 4:23-24; James 5:14-15; 1 Peter 2:24, etc.)
There is a significant amount of [[history|historical]] and [[Science|scientific]] evidence that Bible reading has greatly increased human flourishing such as people's physical health, psychological well-being, [[character]] and [[virtue]], and social connections (See: [[Bible reading and human flourishing]]).
