Context - "Everything does not always mean everything. A simple illustration will make that evident. Upon paying his bill in a restaurant, the customer will invariably be asked by the cashier, Is everything all right? Clearly, everything here is not everything-in-general, but everything-in-context, the restaurant context of the food, the service, the seating, and possibly even the restrooms. In a word, the context supplies terms such as everything with natural limits, usually not explicitly stated, but by the same token routinely recognized."

[See Agony of Deceit pp. 75-79. VERY GOOD. See MAT 22:37; MAR 12:30 (heart, soul, mind and strengthfour parts!); LUK 1:46, 47. GEN 2:7TWO PARTS ONLY. See also Soul and Body]

Healing - spiritual - MAT 13:15
Healing - physical - 2TI 4:20. In Atonement - "Now in the light of Matthew 8:17 it seems, indeed, irrefutable that the cross of Christ constitutes a conquest over both sin and sickness and, of course, constitutes a conquest over Satan as well [Colossians 2:15]. But to recognize the parallels properly is to recognize them across the board. The conquest over Satan does not bring the spiritual warfare and the suffering that spiritual warfare entails to an end [1 Peter 5:8-9]. Similarly, the conquest over sin does not spell sinless perfection. The heartache that this produces is only too genuine [1 John 3:20]. So the conquest over sickness does not imply perfect health [Philippians 2:26-27]. The thorns and thistles with which this world is cursed after the Fall do not leave any area of life untouched AND WILL NOT BE REMOVED UNTIL THE CONSUMMATION" [emphasis added - AAL] Agony of Deceit, by Krabbendam p. 84
