Mal 4:2
"But for you who fear My name the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings; and you will go forth and skip about like calves from the stall.

For those who fear the Name of the Father, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in His wings. This is a reference to Messiah Yeshua. The "sun" is metaphorically a reference to Elohim (Ps. 84:11, Isa. 60:19-22, John 8:12). The passage says that He will have healing on His "wings." The Hebrew term for "wings" is kanaph: Wings - H3671. kanaph, kaw-nawf'; from H3670; an edge or extremity; spec. (of a bird or army) a wing, (of a garment or bed-clothing) a flap, (of the earth) a quarter, (of a building) a pinnacle:-- + bird, border, corner, end, feather [-ed], X flying, + (one an-) other, overspreading, X quarters, skirt, X sort, uttermost part, wing ([-ed]). There was a woman with a hemorrhage that fully understood the meaning of this passage:
Luke 8:43-44
And a woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, and could not be healed by anyone, This women who was suffering the hemmorrhage for 12 years was unfit for any human contact. She had been to many doctors of that day, but no one could help her. 44came up behind Him, and touched the fringe of His cloak; and immediately her hemorrhage stopped.

The fringe of His cloak would have been the tassels or tsitstit of His garment. Fringe - G2899. kraspedon, kras'-ped-on; of uncert. der.; a margin, i.e. (spec.) a fringe or tassel:-- border, hem. This woman had great faithfulness for she knew that the Messiah would come and have healing in His wings Mal 4:2). The Hebrew word for "wings" is "kanaph." This woman had faithfulness that Yeshua would have healing in even the tassels of His garment. Her action of faithfulness was rewarded.

Luke 8:45-48
And Jesus said, "Who is the one who touched Me?" And while they were all denying it, Peter said, "Master, the multitudes are crowding and pressing upon You." 46But Jesus said, "Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me." 47And when the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."

Yeshua knew who touched Him and why. He wanted this woman to come back and tell the people the reason why she had touched Him. It would appear that this woman said she knew Yeshua was the Sun of Righteousness sent by the Father as spoken of by the prophet Malachi and she bore personal witness to that Truth. There were others who touched the tassels on the fringe of His garment that were healed also. (Matt. 14:36).
