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 to ask whether Simon, who was called Peter, was staying there.
19 While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Look, three men are searching for you.
20 Now get up, go down, and go with them without hesitation; for I have sent them."
21 So Peter went down to the men and said, "I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for your coming?"
22 They answered, "Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear what you have to say."
