Jesus said His kingdom was not of this world, therefore His miracles were also not of this world but rather belonged to the everlasting world.
You tell me, what is the greater miracle, a that a person who can not see the spiritual beauty of Christ has the scales of sin taken from his eyes so that He has spiritual sight and sees that Christ is a pathway to God and his own eternal life.
Or a literally blind person is made to see for a few years before his death and those eyes rot away?
I'm reading from the same Bible as you.
The leprosy spoken of was the leprosy of sin.
You see Jesus, yes you see the Father in the sense that Jesus is a perfect mirror reflecting the perfections of God, the perfect virtues, the perfect love, the perfect character, not the image of God.
Yes, the Word manifested in Jesus, but Jesus in turn was not literally part of God. The Bible does claim this correctly, but it does not make the claim that Jesus is God. Jesus is a station above the human being, but is far beneath the station of God.
