Jesus healed people. And that often meant touching them; ending not just the physical pain but the deep pain of isolation and the loss of human contact that can go with sickness. This image was drawn from the healing of Peter's mother-in-law; Jesus reached out and touched her hand and she was well (see Matthew's Gospel, chapter 8, verses 14-15)
