Matthew9:8

They glorified God. Mt 5:16. To glorify God, here, means to praise him, or to acknowledge his power. The expression, which had given such power to men, was a part of their praise. It expresses no sentiment of the evangelist about the nature of Christ, but is a record of their feelings and their praise.

(r) "glorified" Acts 4:21, Gal 1:24
