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

and go with them;

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:

Acts 10:20 In-Context

18 They asked if Simon Peter was staying there.

19 Peter was still thinking about the vision when the Spirit said to him, "Three men are looking for you.

20 Get up, and go downstairs. Don't hesitate to go with these men. I have sent them."

21 So Peter went to the men. He said, "I'm the man you're looking for. Why are you here?"

22 The men replied, "Cornelius, a Roman army officer, sent us. He's a man who has God's approval and who respects God. Also, the Jewish people respect him. A holy angel told him to summon you to his home to hear what you have to say."
