The point of bikur cholim, Part II

Hi,

While it is true that the main purpose of visiting those who are ill is to be motivated to pray for their health, another purpose is to look after their particular needs.

(Talmud, Nedarim 40a; Tur and Shulchan Aruch Yoreh Deah 335)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
