Talking things over, they went on into the house, where Cornelius introduced Peter to everyone who had come. Peter addressed them, "You know, I'm sure that this is highly irregular.

But now I'd like to know why you sent for me."

Contextual Overview

19As Peter continued to reflect on the vision, the Spirit told him, "Three men are here looking for you. 20Get up! Go downstairs and accompany them without hesitation, because I have sent them." 21So Peter went down to the men and said, "Here am I, the one you are looking for. Why have you come?" 22"Cornelius the centurion has sent us," they said. "He is a righteous and God-fearing man with a good reputation among the whole Jewish nation. A holy angel instructed him to request your presence in his home, so that he could hear a message from you." 23So Peter invited them in as his guests. And the next day he got ready and went with them, accompanied by some of the brothers from Joppa. 24The following day he arrived in Caesarea, where Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends. 25As Peter was about to enter, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet to worship him. 26But Peter helped him up. "Stand up," he said, "I am only a man myself." 27As Peter talked with him, he went inside and found many people gathered together.28He said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with a foreigner or visit him. But God has shown me that I should not call any man impure or unclean.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And as he talked with him,.... About the excessive respect he showed him, and his own infirmity and frailty, and unworthiness, as a creature:

he went in; to Cornelius's house, at the door, and through the porch, to some interior room and apartment in it:

and found many that were come together; besides his family, many of his relations and intimate friends, whom he had got together on this occasion, that they might receive some advantage, as well as himself.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And as he talked with him - He probably met him at the door, or at a small distance from the house. It was an expression of joy thus to go out to meet him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 10:27. And as he talked with him — Cornelius had met Peter at some short distance from his house, and they conversed together till they went in.
