ACTS 10:25 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.”
As Peter entered the house, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet in reverence.—Cornelius's prostration (proskynesis, worship/reverence) echoes worship gestures before divine manifestations. Yet Peter will immediately refuse this honor, redirecting it to Christ. The moment captures the tension: Cornelius reveres the apostle; Peter must transform this reverence toward Jesus.
