📚 Historical Context
In the book of Acts, Chapter 10, we find the story of Cornelius, a Roman centurion who was a God-fearing Gentile living in Caesarea. He receives a vision from an angel instructing him to send his men to Joppa to fetch Peter, an apostle of Jesus, which highlights the early church's expansion beyond Jewish circles. This event is set against the backdrop of a culturally divided world where Jews and Gentiles rarely interacted in matters of faith.
