The man who was healed had no idea who it was, for Jesus had slipped away into the crowd that was there.
I was just thinking about this verse today.
I found myself wondering how many people receive God's healing touch and have no idea that it was God. How many of them will never know that it is God unless someone tells them?
The next verse says that Jesus then found him - not the other way around. I wonder if there is a challenge in that - namely that sometimes we are supposed to point out the ways in which God is already at work in the lives of our friends who don't yet accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour.

A God who heals some without them knowing and ignores others who need it- that's what Maurice Wiles calls 'an arbitary and irrational God'! Still, He moves in mysterious ways!
