Context of Acts 10:30
28And he said to them, Ye know that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God hath shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean. 29Therefore I came to you willingly, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
