Contextual Overview
1 Pete and John showed up at the main church one day for the three o'clock prayer.
2They got there at the same time a lame fellow was being helped in. People put him at the Beautiful Gate every day to beg.
3When Pete and John came by, the fellow asked them for some money.
4Pete and John stared a hole through this guy, and then Pete said, "Look at us!"
5The man looked up, obviously expecting a handout.
6But Pete said, "I don't have any money for you, but I'll give you something better. In the name of Jesus Christ, get up and walk."
7Pete helped the guy to his feet. As the man got up, his feet and ankles became strong and were healed.
8The man jumped up and began to walk around. Once he got used to the sensation, he started jumpin' around like a young foal turned out to pasture. He went around praising God, and then went into the Church with Pete and John.
9Everyone was staring at what had just happened.
10When they realized it was that beggar by the Beautiful Gate who had been healed, they couldn't believe their eyes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he gave heed unto them,.... Or "he looked at them", as the Syriac version renders it, as they bid him: he was not only attentive to them in his mind, but he directed his eyes towards them, and looked wistly at them. This clause is left out in the Ethiopic version.
Expecting to receive something of them; not a cure for his lameness, which he little thought of, but some money, as an alms.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 3:5. Expecting to receive something of them. — Because it was a constant custom for all who entered the temple to carry money with them to give to the treasury, or to the poor, or to both. It was on this ground that the friends of the lame man laid him at the gate of the temple, as this was the most likely place to receive alms.
