Acts 10:24

And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

And the morrow after they entered - or, 'he entered,' according to what is presumably the true reading [though eiseelthon (G1525) and - en (G1722) have about equal support].

Into Cesarea. And Cornelius waited (or 'was waiting') for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends. From this it would seem that he had been long enough at Caesarea to form relationships there, and at least that there he had intimate friends, whose presence he was not ashamed to invite to a religious meeting of the most solemn nature, and likely to affect his whole future.
