Exegesis

The adversative all' {ἀλλʼ | allá} “but” introduces a contrastive second clause, where the verb emegalynen {ἐμεγάλυνεν | e-me-gá-ly-nen} “was magnifying, held in high esteem,” also in the imperfect, indicates a sustained attitude of honor from the crowd.

In contextActs 5:13

Yet none of the rest dared to join them, but the people held them in high regard .
