Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed He listened The phrase "He listened" indicates an active engagement and openness to the message being delivered. In the Greek, the word used here is "ἤκουεν" (ēkouen), which implies not just hearing but understanding and internalizing. This suggests a readiness and receptivity to the Gospel, a crucial step in the process of faith. Historically, listening was a primary means of learning and receiving information, especially in a culture where oral tradition was prevalent. to Paul as he was speaking Paul looked directly at him saw that he had faith to be healed Perceiving that he had faith to be healed.--Here, as so often, as if it were the general, though not the universal, law of miraculous working (see Notes on Mark 10:23), faith is pre-supposed as the condition. It follows from this, no less than from the tense of the verb, "used to listen to Paul as he spoke," that he had for some days been among St. Paul's hearers, had heard the gospel of the death and resurrection of Jesus, and had found that such a Saviour met his every need.

(see above, Acts 1:10; Acts 3:4, etc.); seeing for perceiving, A.V.; made whole for healed, A.V. Heard. The force of the imperfect ἤκουε would, perhaps, be better given by "listened" to Paul speaking. There is great resemblance between this miracle of healing, and that of the lame man laid at the gate of the temple, who was healed by Peter (Acts 3:2-10), and, not unnaturally, considerable identity of expression in the narratives. Both men were lame from their birth; the apostles fastened their eyes upon both; both, when healed, leaped and walked; and in both cases the miracle 'had a great effect upon the multitudes who beheld it. Zeller (vol. it. p. 6), with characteristic recklessness, infers that "this narrative was, merely in imitation of the early miraculous story of Peter;" and so relegates both it and the subsequent narrative to the regions of fable.Parallel Commentaries ...
