Acts 10:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 10:2

Cornelius Sends a Delegation

1 There was a certain man in ^aCaesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian¹ Regiment,

2 ^aa devout man and one who ^bfeared God with all his household, who gave¹ alms generously to the people, and prayed to God always.

3 About¹ the ninth hour of the day ^ahe saw clearly in a vision an angel of God coming in and saying to him, “Cornelius!”

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.”
