Atti 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.

Atti 10:1 In-Context

1 OR v’era in Cesarea un certo uomo chiamato per nome Cornelio, centurione della schiera detta Italica.
2 Esso, essendo uomo pio e temente Iddio, con tutta la sua casa, e facendo molte limosine al popolo, e pregando Iddio del continuo,
3 vide chiaramente in visione, intorno l’ora nona del giorno, un angelo di Dio, che entrò a lui, e gli disse: Cornelio.
4 Ed egli, riguardatolo fiso, e tutto spaventato, disse: Che v’è, Signore? E l’angelo gli disse: Le tue orazioni, e le tue limosine, son salite davanti a Dio per una ricordanza.
5 Or dunque, manda uomini in Ioppe, e fa’ chiamare Simone, il quale è soprannominato Pietro.
