    Abstract

    An essay is presented which examines Paul of Tarsus' healings in his own epistles. The author looks into Paul's literary purposes, his pneumatology and ecclesiology, and his own self-understanding as an apostle. He also explores the reason why Paul is Paul depicted as such a prodigious worker of healing miracles in Acts, adding that he subordinated his own healing miracles to the form and purposes of the epistles that he wrote to the gospel.
