“There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.”
Acts 5:16 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 5:16
The expansion - 'there came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one' - describes gospel's centrifugal force. Jerusalem became healing center, drawing regional crowds. The inclusive statement 'healed every one' (Greek 'hapantes') emphasizes complete success rate, validating divine power. Distinguishing 'sick folks' from 'vexed with unclean spirits' recognizes both natural illness and demonic oppression, with Christ's power addressing both.
