    In Acts 4:22, the genitive singular form occurs in the clause describing the man on whom a sign had occurred; the APB renders this as "this sign of healing." In Acts 4:30 and Luke 13:32, accusative forms occur where healing is performed: the APB renders "stretch out your hand to heal" and "perform healings."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with "healing" in Acts 4:22 and "healings" in Luke 13:32; in Acts 4:30 it uses the verbal wording "to heal." These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than establish separate meanings.
