Best Answer

Some of the people with medical knowledge in ancient times were priests and shamans. People would go to a priest for healing.

There was a temple to the Greek god of healing, Asclepius, near the sheep market just outside Jerusalem. People would come to the Asclepium to seek help from the priests and perhaps to enter the five-sided pool as the god passed by, disturbing the water.

There are many references in The Bible to physicians. In the Old Testament, cultures other than the Hebrews were more advanced in the field. Particularly in the New Testament days, the science of medicine was practised as a profession amongst Jews as contact with other cultures increased. Luke himself was a physician

What do you do if a person drinks gasoline?

Why would anyone drink gasoline? But if anyone did, of course it would get them sick and what you do is go to the doctor as quick as you can so the gasoline doesn't spread around in your body and if it doesn't spread by the time you get to the doctor's they would just put you on medicine. If you let it spread and then go to the doctor, the doctor would do surgery on you and take out parts of you body and if you didn't have sex yet your out of luck they take the egg out.
