I wonder why the 1cp Nifal of רָפָא was not used.
BDB and Delitzsch render נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ as ‘healing has come to us’ (/’has healing come to us’).
But perhaps it is suggestive of something objective and cosmic having been accomplished by the Lord Jesus on the cross – the reconciliation of all things – thus ‘it is healed’ (cf. ‘it is finished’) – the benefits of which then come down to us?
