Exegesis
The verse opens with the temporal marker hos {ὡς | hōs} ‘when’, followed by the aorist passive ebaptísthē {ἐβαπτίσθη | ebaptísthē} indicating a completed baptism event; the coordinating phrase ho oîkos autês {ὁ οἶκος αὐτῆς | ho oîkos autês} extends this action to her household.
In context — Acts 16:15
After she and her household were baptized, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord , come into my house and stay.” And she strongly persuaded us.
