"And he (Peter) said unto them, Ye KNOW how that it is an UNLAWFUL THING for a man that is a Jew to KEEP COMPANY, or COME UNTO ONE OF ANOTHER NATION; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean." Acts 10:28.

God showed Peter, through a vision, and Peter doubted in hmself what this vision which he had seen should mean (Acts 9:17).

How could Peter say "it is an UNLAWFUL THING for a Jew to KEEP COMPANY or COME UNTO ONE OF ANOTHER NATION", if Peter and the 11 understood they were to preach the gospel to all nations? This is as late as Acts 10 that Peter is saying this and doubting what his vision meant.

If, from the moment Christ gave them the "great commission", they knew they would be preaching the gospel to all nations, Jew and Gentile, then explain to me Acts 10:28 please.

And I will add the question at this point, WHAT gospel were they to preach to all nations?

Acts 9:17 should be Acts 10:17.

Oh golly. You mean the disciples didn’t fully understand everything right away? THAT hadn’t happened before, had it...
