Acts 10:20 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 10:20

Arise, therefore, and get thee down
From the top of the house where he was:

and go with them;
the three men, to Caesarea

doubting nothing;
whether it is right or wrong, lawful or unlawful, to go with them, because not Jews, but uncircumcised Gentiles, laying aside all such Jewish scruples:

for I have sent them:
the Spirit of God is said to do what Cornelius did at his instigation and direction, signified by an angel he sent to him, ( Acts 10:5 Acts 10:8 ) .

Acts 10:20 In-Context

18 They called out and asked, "Is there a guest here by the name of Simon Peter?"
19 Peter was still trying to understand what the vision meant, when the Spirit said, "Listen! Three men are here looking for you.
20 So get ready and go down, and do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them."
21 So Peter went down and said to the men, "I am the man you are looking for. Why have you come?"
22 "Captain Cornelius sent us," they answered. "He is a good man who worships God and is highly respected by all the Jewish people. An angel of God told him to invite you to his house, so that he could hear what you have to say."
