Is this verse talking about physical or spiritual healing?
1 Peter 2:24 -KJV- Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. I thought this was about spiritual healing- our sins being wiped off because of Jesus' wounds- being saved. Then I heard many TV evangelists use this to speak about physical healing from sickness etc. Kindly quote scriptures if possible. Thank you.

- I think it means spiritual healing. Only Jesus performs miracles and only he could heal the sick. TV evangelists are in the business of selling hope, i'm sorry to say. So they make claims that are even more outrageous than the actual tenets of most religion. By "his stripes" I believe they mean the marks from when Jesus was flogged and the way Christians believe they were "healed" when Jesus died was that his blood, as a sacrifice, allowed them passage to heaven. So it's spiritual, not physical.
- if you are a human, read this..how God word revealed step by step.. It was Hafsa’s turn to sleep with the Prophet .. Her maid Maria Quptia ( a gift from King of Alexandria) was also in her room when prophet walked in.. Maria was a very attractive and voluptuous young teenager.. She aroused carnal desires in any man who looked at her; then our Prophet was not any man, he was endowed with 30 man libido* by Allah. . * Bukhari Volume 1, Book 5, Number 268: Narrated Qatada: “ Prophet was given the sexual strength of thirty men” To be alone with Maria, Prophet sent Hafsa to her Dad’s house with a phony excuse that Umar wanted to see her. UMAR WAS AWAY PERFORMING SUNNA Umar was not home, when Hafsa reached her Dad’s place few houses down the street. Hafsa: “Mom Where is Dad”? Mother: “He has gone to the Al Manasi field near Baqia to defecate”... Hafsa: “Why doesn’t he go to the field behind our house”.. Mother: “Because it is a sunna to relieve yourself at the place where Prophet relieves himself”.. Hafsa: “I will wait for him” . Mother :”It may be a long wait. He hides there afterwards to spy on prophet’s wives”. Hafsa: “Spy on prophet’s wives, what for”? . Mother “To make sure they are veiled according to aya 33.59 when they come to relieve themselves. As you know this aya was sent* by Allah at your Dad’s request”. * Bukhari Volume 8, Book 74, Number 257: Narrated 'Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) 'Umar bin Al-Khattab used to say to Allah's Apostle "Let your wives be veiled" But he did not do so. The wives of the Prophet used to go out to answer the call of nature at night only at Al-Manasi.' Once Sauda, the daughter of Zam'a went out and she was a tall woman. 'Umar bin Al-Khattab saw her while she was (defecating) in a group, and said, "I have recognized you, O Sauda!" He ('Umar) said so as he was anxious for some Divine orders regarding the veil (the veiling of women.) So Allah revealed the verse of veiling 33.59. (Al-Hijab; a complete body cover excluding the eyes). (See Hadith No. 148, Vol. 1) * Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 395: Narrated 'Umar (bin Al-Khattab): Allah agreed with me on three things and revealed ayas, one of them was the verse of the veiling of the women (33.59) . Hafsa: “Well I cant wait that long. It is my turn with Prophet , he must be in bed waiting for me”. PROPHET IN BED BUT NOT WAITING When Hafsa returned, she found Preophet in bed but not waiting. He was in action with her maid Maria. Hafsa was outraged (she had a temper of her Dad Umar) and started hollering at him. Hafsa: “Rasulullah you lied and and deceived me to screw my maid”?. Prophet:” Hafsa mind your language. Aya 33.32* says you should talk to Allah’s Prophet in an a honorable manner”. * 33.32 “O wives of the Prophet! Speak to the prophet in an honorable manner”.. Hafsa: “I will speak honorably to the prophet when the Prophet stops acting dishonorably himself”. Prophet: “Having sex with slave girls is not dishonorable. Allah has made* them halal for me”. (*33.50 “Mohammed , sex with slave girls and captured women is halal for you*) Hafsa:” I don’t give a rat’s behind who is is halal for you and who is is not .. You can have sex with a she camel for all I care. But I don’t want it in my bed and on my night”. Prophet: “Hafsa ,calm down. I will tell you something. If you keep this incident a secret between you and me and don’t tell any one, I take an oath that I will never touch Maria again. And Please cool down first . Go have a drink of cold water.... Hafsa: “ O.K. I have to go pee also... AYA 66.1 AND 66.2 REVEALED Hafsa returned after a short while and found her husband again in bed with Maria. Hafsa: “Rasulullah, You have a short memory. You had just said you will not touch her again”. Prophet: “Yes I did, but Allah revealed aya 66.1 ...after you left, it says “Mohammed why do you forbid yourself what Allah has made lawful to you just to please your wife” Hafsa: “What about the oath you took.” Prophet:: “Allah dissolved my oath” by aya 66.2 which says Allah has ordained for you the dissolution of your oath. And Allah is your Maula”. ALLAH SPIED FOR THE PROPHET Next morning when Prophet returned from Fajr prayer, his wives gave him dirty looks and a silent treatment instead of happily greeting him like every day... As smart as our prophet was, he knew right away that Hafsa, had ratted and had divulged last night’s incident to all other wives who incidentally hated Maria for her beauty and prophet’s fondness for her.. Prophet was pissed off and rushed into Hafsa’s room: “When I told you to keep last night’s incident with Maria a secret to yourself, I trusted you; why did you spread it”? . Hafsa: “Who informed you that I spread it”? .Prophet : “Allah informed* me”: (* 66.3 “The prophet had trusted one of his wives with a certain incident, then she spread it, and GOD let him know about it.
