I believe the answer is:

elijah

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'miracle man' is the definition.
'Elijah' can be an answer for 'man'. I'm not certain of the 'miracle' bit.

'jail he rebuilt' is the wordplay.
'rebuilt' is an anagram indicator.
'jail'+'he'='jailhe'
'jailhe' with letters rearranged gives 'ELIJAH'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for elijah that I've seen before include "Biblical prophet" , "Hebrew prophet who rebuked Ahab and Jezebel" , "he prophesied" , "Mendelssohn oratorio" , "Hebrew prophet in the time of Jezebel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
