I was doing some research and compiled a list of healings in the Bibl. The source list I used was missing at least a couple, so there may be others. Feel free to let me know if you find one.

Some Comments on the Categories in the List of Healings in the Bible
As part of the study, I thought it would be useful to create some categories of healing. It doesn’t always say, but I’ve tried to categorize as best I could.
Restoration
This is either reversing a natural condition, or reversing something God did to a person.
Birth Defect
Healing of people born with a particular problem.
Illness
Someone got sick. Note that this list never includes head colds and the like, but are always debilitating or potentially fatal diseases.
Injury
Curing the after effects of an accident or an injury. Note that there is only one of these in the scriptures and it was Jesus’ last miracle.
