This works upon his faith to a higher degree: he first believed the report of him, then he gave credit to the word that he spake, now he believeth savingly, and not he alone, but his whole family became Christians. Such instances we have concerning Lydia, Acts 16:14,15, the jailer, Acts 4:34, and Crispus, Acts 18:8.
