Matthew Poole and continuators on John 4:53

53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus had said unto him, Thy son liveth , and himself believed, and his whole house .

The circumstance of the time when his Son recovered agreeing with the very hour, when Christ had said unto him, Thy son liveth, was a mighty confirmation to him, that he was beholden to Christ for his Cure, and consequently, that Christ was no ordinary man, more than a Prophet, even the Son of God;

this works upon his Faith to an higher degree: He first believed the report of him, then he gave credit to the word that he spake, now he believeth savingly, and not he alone, but his whole Family became Christians. Such Instances we have concerning Lydia, Acts 16.14, 15. the Iaylour, v. 34. and Crispus, Acts 18.8.
