THE MESSAGE
"So I started in, talking. Before I'd spoken half a dozen sentences, the Holy Spirit fell on them just as he did on us the first time.

So I ask you: If God gave the same exact gift to them as to us when we believed in the Master Jesus Christ, how could I object to God?"

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
And as I began to speak,...., That is, whilst he was speaking; the word "begin" with Luke, both, in his Gospel and in this history, is used not to denote the time or order of any action, but the thing itself; as in Luke 4:21 for otherwise it was towards the close, and not at the beginning of his discourse, that what follows happened:
the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning; of our ministry, since the death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ; meaning on the day of Pentecost, and that the Holy Ghost fell on Cornelius and those that were with him, in a like visible form, and in the same kind of gifts, as speaking with tongues, as on them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And as I began to speak - Or, while I was speaking.
The Holy Ghost ... - Acts 10:44.
