Barnes' Notes
Without gainsaying - without "saying anything against it" ; without hesitation or reluctance.
I ask, therefore ... - The main design for which Cornelius had sent for him had been mentioned to Peter by the messenger, Acts 10:22. But Peter now desired from his own lips a more particular statement of the considerations which had induced him to send for him.
For what intent - For what purpose or design.
