Acts 10:31 in context

The verses around it, from Acts 10.

27 As Peter talked with him, he went inside and found many people gathered together.

28 He 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.

29 So when I was invited, I came without objection. I ask, then, why have you sent for me?”

30 Cornelius answered: “Four days ago I was in my house praying at this, the ninth hour. Suddenly a man in radiant clothing stood before me

31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your gifts to the poor have been remembered before God.

32 Therefore send to Joppa for Simon, who is called Peter. He is a guest in the home of Simon the tanner, by the sea.’

33 So I sent for you immediately, and you were kind enough to come. Now then, we are all here in the presence of God to listen to everything the Lord has instructed you to tell us.”

34 Then Peter began to speak: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism,

35 but welcomes those from every nation who fear Him and do what is right.
