actually, the minimums for learning spells are not in the realms (eg air, fire) but in the books (alchemy, divinity). so, the reason you cant learn with that bishop is that s/he has not developed their books enough.
for example, the heal all spell is level 5. that requires the bishop be level 11 and have 60 in divinity. since you have 52, you cant learn it.
the short recommendation is, whenever you build a bishop, focus on developing your spellbooks. bishops dont get that nice 25% bonus the pures do, so they are always lagging behind on book learning. early you might pump the realms at level up, just so you dont fumble every spell you try, but from then on, book book book!

okay, that was the simple answer... now the tricky bits...
there are two exceptions. first, your effective skill for learning is equal to the spellbook level plus 10% of the realm skill in the realm the spell is from. so, regarding heal all, you could still learn it if your divinity book skill was 52, and your divine realm skill was 80+ (52 + 10% of 80 = 60).
the second exception regards level. you dont have to have 11 levels of bishop, or priest, to learn heal all. you could have 5 levels as priest and 6 as bishop - the levels are additive according to the books you could have learned while that class. in fact, you could have 5 levels of bishop, 5 of priest, and 5 of lord, which would add to 11 levels of divinity book...
but wait, it's even more complex than that - your level is not just calculated on a book level, but on each individual spell... so in the case of the portal spells, you need level 11 in any book in which portal is possible (which is all of them). so 4 levels as mage, 4 as alchemist, and 3 as priest would be enough levels to learn portal (but you'd still need 60 in one of the spell books, or 60 with the help of 10% of a realm, to do it!)
whew.
wolfie has a great calculator on his website to do all that for you.
