Exegesis

The verse begins with coordinated second person plural verbs theōreite {θεωρεῖτε | theō-reî-te} ‘you see’ and akouete {ἀκούετε | a-koú-e-te} joined by kai {καί | kaí} ‘and’, giving emphatic weight to the addressees’ direct experience, both visual and auditory.

In contextActs 19:26

And you see and hear that not only in Ephesus, but almost in all Asia , this Paul, having persuaded, turned away a great crowd, saying that the gods made by hands are not gods.
