Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Perceived (epegnwsan). Second aorist indicative. Clearly knew because he was not able to pronounce the benediction from the steps (Numbers 6:24-26).
Continued making signs (hn dianeuwn). Periphrastic imperfect again. He nodded and beckoned back and forth (dia, between). Further proof of a vision that caused his dumbness.
