Exegesis
The aorist passive verb ēnoigēsan {ἠνοίγησαν | ēnoígēsan} ‘were opened’ takes as its logical subject the nominative phrase hai akoai {αἱ ἀκοαί | haí akoaí} ‘the ears’, although the subject follows the verb in Greek, a common narrative order that foregrounds the action.
In context — Mark 7:35
And his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he began to speak plainly .
