He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from their graves.
⛓ Read Psalm 107 forward — the whole chapter and its afterlife →Where this passage surfaces again, sorted by the strength of the link. Each kind of reuse — formal quotation, deliberate allusion, faint echo, figural pattern — carries its own mark. Follow any reference to read it in place.
Echo2
A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.
'The word which he sent to the children of Israel' faintly echoes 'he sent his word and healed them,' apt given the immediate reference to Jesus 'healing all who were oppressed.' Low volume.
Low confidenceThe mass healing of the afflicted who press to touch him echoes the psalm's 'he sent his word and healed them.' Recurrence of the healing-deliverance motif in the Psalms supports coherence; volume is low.
Low confidence◇ Figural1
A typological pattern re-read in a later text — no verbal quotation, high figural coherence.
'He sent his word, and healed them' precisely captures the healing-at-a-distance by bare word (v50-53), where the father believes 'the word that Jesus spoke.' Strong Coherence on word-as-healing-agent; moderate Volume.
