'where a miracle occurred' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'predict that man gets terribly sad' is the wordplay.
'predict' becomes 'bet' (betting is a kind of predicting).
'that man' becomes 'he' (he refers to a man).
'gets' indicates putting letters inside.
'terribly' indicates an anagram.
'sad' with letters rearranged gives 'sda'.
'he' put into 'sda' is 'hesda'.
'bet'+'hesda'='BETHESDA'
