Exegesis
The content clause introduced by hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} ‘that’ is governed by the instrumental preposition en with the dative in tō onomati Iēsou Christou tou Nazōraiou {ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ Ναζωραίου | en tō o-nó-ma-ti Iē-soû Khris-toû tou Na-zō-raí-ou}, emphasizing the authoritative power vested in Jesus’ name.
The concluding clause en toutō houtos parestēken enōpion hymōn hygiēs {ἐν τούτῳ οὗτος παρέστηκεν ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν ὑγιής | en toút-ō hoû-tos pa-ré-stē-ken e-nṓ-pi-on hy-môn hū-gi-ḗs} links the man’s enduring standing to the past act, preserving the instrumental force of en as “by Him” to convey the causal connection between Christ’s action and the man’s healing.
