Acts 10:6

Acts 10:6

4 And when he observed him, he was afraid, and said, “What is it, lord?” So he said to him, “Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God.

5 Now ^asend men to Joppa, and send for Simon whose surname is Peter.

6 He is lodging with ^aSimon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea. ^bHe will tell you what you must do.”

7 And when the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier from among those who waited on him continually.

8 So when he had explained all these things to them, he sent them to Joppa.

Barnes' Notes

<< Acts 10:5

Acts 10:7 >>

He lodgeth - He remains as a guest at his house. See Acts 9:43.

By the sea-side - Joppa was a seaport on the Mediterranean. Tanneries are erected on the margin of streams or of any body of water to convey away the filth produced in the operation of dressing skins.
