32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
From William Kirk Hobart, The Medical Language of Luke . . .
"St. Luke alone employs the great medical word ἴασις, "healing," "cure." And ἀποτελεῖν, which is a word of most frequent use in medical language, and is met in only one other passage in the N.T. (James, i. 10.)"
Luke also uses a technical medical term (ὑδρωπικὸς) writing about the man with dropsy in chapter 14. See The Language of the Bible with Reference to Natural Things
