Verse 48
Were very attentive to hear him - Or, They heard him with the utmost attention, εξεκρεματο αυτου ακουων , literally, They hung upon him, hearing. The same form of speech is used often by both Greek and Latin writers of the best repute. -
Ex vultu dicentis, pendet omnium vultus .
The face of every man hung on the face of the speaker.
- Pendetque iterum narrantis ab ore .
