Hechos 10:1 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 10:1

There was a certain man in Caesarea
This was the Caesarea formerly called Strato's tower, not Caesarea Philippi; for the former, and not the latter, lay near Joppa:

called Cornelius;
which was a Roman name, and he himself was a Roman or an Italian:

a centurion of the band called the Italian band;
which consisted of soldiers collected out of Italy, from whence the band took its name, in which Cornelius was a centurion, having a hundred men under him, as the name of his office signifies.

Hechos 10:1 In-Context

1 Había en Cesarea un hombre llamado Cornelio, centurión de la cohorte llamada la Italiana,
2 piadoso y temeroso de Dios con toda su casa, que daba muchas limosnas al pueblo judío y oraba a Dios continuamente.
3 Como a la hora novena del día, vio claramente en una visión a un ángel de Dios que entraba a donde él estaba y le decía: Cornelio.
4 Mirándolo fijamente y atemorizado, Cornelio dijo: ¿Qué quieres, Señor? Y él le dijo: Tus oraciones y limosnas han ascendido como memorial delante de Dios.
5 Despacha ahora algunos hombres a Jope, y manda traer a un hombre llamado Simón, que también se llama Pedro.
