Acts 11:12

And the spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:

And the Spirit bade me go with them, [nothing doubting]. We have bracketed the last two words, as of doubtful authority: they may have been copied from ; but internal evidence is rather favourable to them here also.

Moreover these six brethren accompanied me. This important specification we have only from Peter himself, the historian being more general (). It is doubtless mentioned to show how careful he had been to provide a sufficiency of competent witnesses of so great a transaction.

And we entered into the man's house. No mention is here made of the name of Cornelius, much less of his high position, as if that were of any weight in deciding the question. To the charge, "Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised," he simply says, he entered into the uncircumcised man's house, to whom he had been divinely directed.
