Exegesis
The verse opens with the demonstrative touto {τοῦτο | toû-to} “this,” which links the statement to the preceding incident, followed by the aorist verb egeneto {ἐγένετο | egéneto} “it happened,” forming an initial clause that marks a completed historical event.
In context — Acts 19:17
And this became known to all the Jews and also the Greeks living in Ephesus, and fear fell upon all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified .
