Maybe I've missed this, and maybe some scholar can direct me to the correct quotes in the bible.

Has the bible ever spoken of Jesus restoring lost (amputated) limbs?

Has any biblical figure done so? If there is clear cut wording to this effect, I would like to know.

(scratching my head and flipping through bible pages.)

I don't know about lost limbs, but Jesus supposedly restored the sight of a blind man using his own spit, and also supposedly cured a lame man. But then again, so did the Roman emperor Vespasian, according to Tacitus, so apparently it must have been easy to do back then.
