Exegesis
The main clause centers on ho Theos epoiei {ὁ θεὸς ἐποίει | ho the-ós e-poí-ei}, where ho Theos is the explicit subject and epoiei, an imperfect indicative, portrays ongoing or repeated action in the past, suggesting a sustained period during which these miracles were taking place.
In context — Acts 19:11
And God was doing miracles that were not ordinary through the hands of Paul .
