This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

5. Lexicon passages
But why study Hebrew?
The Old Testament was written 2,500 to 3,500 years ago by a people whose culture and
lifestyle were very different from our own. When we read the Word of God as a modern
day Christian, our culture and lifestyle often influence our interpretation of the words and
phrases.
The word rain is a good example of how culture can influence ones view of a word. To a
bride and groom preparing for an outdoor wedding the news of rain has a negative
meaning, but to the farmer in the middle of a drought, the same word has a positive
meaning. For many of us, rain means a spoiled picnic but to the ancient Hebrews, rain
meant life, for without it their nomadic life would end. Without a cultural understanding of
the words in the Bible, much is missed or overlooked.
Many times our modern culture can influence definitions of words in a way not intended by
the original author. The Bible often refers to the keeping and breaking God's commands
and covenant. To "keep" the commands of God is generally understood as to "obey" the
commands, but this is not completely true since the Hebrew word "shamar" (rm#) literally
means to guard or protect. The breaking of the commands is understood as "disobeying"
but the Hebrew word "Parar" (rrp) literally means to trample underfoot).

About the Thompson Chain Reference Bible
Early in his ministry as a Methodist Preacher, Dr. Frank Charles Thompson realized
that the reference Bibles then on the market failed to present the Bible as it should
be presented - in a clear, scholarly, interesting, yet simple and compact form. He
saw the need for a well-organized reference Bible that would be of practical use to
the layman as well as a minister.
He began his original research about 1890. After he completed the thought
suggestions opposite the verses throughout the Bible, some of the men in his church
saw his Bible and told him that this was what they needed to help them in their Bible
study. They encouraged Dr. Thompson to have his Bible, with marginal references,
published so that everyone could have the advantage of these helps in their Bible
study.
Today the Thompson Chain Study System® offers you a complete study library in
one volume! With over 78 practical features for in depth scriptural appreciation and
understanding, nothing can match what the Thompson Chain Reference Bible®
offers!
6. About the Author
Dr. Frank Charles Thompson was born in 1858, in Elmira, New York. He was
ordained into the Methodist ministry in 1879. While pastoring in Genesee, county,
New York, he began to make extensive notes in his bible. Members of his church
offered to help pay for the publication of the marginal notes. The original hand-
written notes in the margins of Dr. Thompson's personal Bible are on display at
Kirkbride Bible Company offices in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The first edition of the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible was published in 1908, by
the Methodist's Book Concern of Dobbs Ferry, New York, and Thompson Chain rose
to popularity by 1915. Now more than 11 million copies have been sold. In addition
to his work with the chain-reference-bible, Dr. Thompson wrote two books: Bob's
Hike to the Holy City, the Adventures of a Boy Scout and His Sister on the Hill Trail,
in 1927 and Barriers to Eden, A Tale of Social Blockade, in 1939. Frank Charles
Thompson died, in 1940.
