16,32
KAI ELALHSAN AUTWi TON LOGON TOU KURIOU SUN PASIN TOIS
EN THi OIKIAi AUTOU

16,34
ANAGAGWN TE AUTOUS EIS TON OIKON PAREQHKEN TRAPEZAN,
KAI HGALLISASATO PANOIKEI PEPISTEUKWS TWi QEWi

For some reason Luke seems to focus his attention on
the fact that they spoke the word of the Lord AUTWi
(to the jailer), and that the jailer believed, using
again the singular PEPISTEUKWS. Each time the jailer's
household is loosely connected, and indirectly related
as some kind of participants. Any reason why in this
passage the household is referenced indirectly and
seemingly ambiguously (did they believe or piggyback
on the jailer)?

Also, does PANOIKEI modify HGALLISASATO or
PEPISTEUKWS? If PEPISTEUKWS, then this seems to be the
first direct linkage of the household putting their
faith in Christ(v. 31)/God(v. 34).
