Contextual Overview

¹ AND the apostles and the brethren who were in Juda heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God. ² And when Simon Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who upheld the circumcision contended with him, ³ Saying he had entered into the houses of uncircumcised men and had eaten with them. ⁴ Then Simon began to recite the facts one after another, saying, ⁵ As I was praying in Joppa, I saw in a vision something like a linen cloth descending from the sky, and it was tied at its four corners; and it came even to me. ⁶ And as I looked at it, I saw that there were in it fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air. ⁷ Then I heard a voice saying to me, Simon, arise, kill and eat. ⁸ And I said, Far be it, my Lord: for never has anything defiled and unclean entered my mouth. ⁹ But again the voice from heaven said to me, What God has cleansed, do not call unclean. ¹⁰ This happened three times: then everything was lifted up into heaven.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Who shall tell thee words,.... Preach doctrines, such as relate to the person and office of Christ, to peace and pardon, and righteousness and salvation by him; such as Peter did preach, as appears by his discourse in the preceding chapter:

whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved; that is, which would be a means of instructing him and his family in the right and true way of salvation; for the Gospel only points out the way of salvation, and is only effectual to it, when it is accompanied with, the power of God: multitudes hear it, and yet are not saved by and those to whom it comes not in word only, but in power, are saved only by Christ, who is revealed in it, as God's way of salvation; it is not bare hearing the word and attending on ordinances that will save any, only such who believe in Christ with the heart, who is the sum and substance of the Gospel, are saved; and still less are any saved by the faith of others; the house or family of Cornelius were not saved by his believing in Christ; but the words of faith and sound doctrine being preached to them, as to him, and faith coming thereby to one as to another, they were saved in one and the same way, namely, through faith in Christ Jesus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And all thy house - Thy family. This is a circumstance which his omitted in the account in Acts 10:0: It is said, however, in Acts 10:2, that Cornelius feared God with all his house. It is evident from Acts 10:48 that the family also received the ordinance of baptism, and was received into the church.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 11:14. Thou and all thy house shall be saved. — This is an additional circumstance: before, it was said, Acts 10:6, Peter shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do; and, in Acts 10:32, who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. But, in Peter's relation, the matter is more explicitly declared, he shall tell thee words whereby thou and thy house shall be saved. He shall announce to you all the doctrine of salvation.
