(48) All the people were very attentive to hear him.--Literally, hung upon him as they heard. The Greek phrase is another of the words characteristic of St. Luke. Its force may be gathered by its use in the Greek version of Genesis 44:30, where it stands for "his life is bound up in" (or, hangs upon) "the lad's life."
