This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





His name; his power; for by it he is known, as men or things are by their several names; or the name of Christ is put for Christ himself, as the name of God is put for God commonly.



Through faith in his name; calling by faith on the name of Christ, being thoroughly persuaded that he could and would heal this cripple.



The faith which is by him; not only faith, as on Christ as its object, but by and from Christ as its author; faith being twice made mention of in this cure, there being required faith in Peter to heal, and in the lame man to be healed.
