Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g4982 Greek: sozo

Recover:

"to save," is sometimes used of "healing" or "restoration to health," the latter in Jhn 11:12, RV, "he will recover," marg., "be saved" (AV, "he shall do well").
See HEAL, PRESERVE, SAVE, WHOLE.

2 Strong's Number: g366 Greek: ananepho

Recover:

"to return to soberness," as from a state of delirium or drunkenness (ana, "back," or "again," nepho, "to be sober, to be wary"), is used in 2Ti 2:26, "may recover themselves" (RV marg., "return to soberness," AV marg., "awake"), said of those who, opposing the truth through accepting perversions of it, fall into the snare of the Devil, becoming intoxicated with error; for these "recovery" is possible only by "repentance unto the knowledge of the truth." For a translation of the verse see CAPTIVE, B, No. 3.

Notes:

(1) For "recovering of sight," Luk 4:18, see SIGHT.

(2) In Mar 16:18, the phrase echo kalos, lit., "to have well," i.e., "to be well," is rendered "they shall recover."
