Exegesis
The prepositional di auton {δι’ αὐτῶν | di au-tôn} “through them” expresses instrumentality, identifying Barnabas and Paul as God’s agents. This sequence—crowd reaction, listening, content of report, and divine action—preserves the Greek emphasis and theological thrust.
Root and etymology
kardiakappa, alpha, rho, delta, iota, alpha
“heart-knower”
In context — Acts 15:12
Then the whole multitude became quiet, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul as they recounted all the signs and wonders that God had done among the Gentiles through them.
