SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:3

diciendo: ¿Por qu has entrado a varones que tienen capullo, y has comido con ellos?

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 11:3

Verse 3. Thou wentest in to men
uncircumcised] In a Jew, this was no small offense; and, as they did not know the reason of St. Peter's conduct, it is no wonder they should call him to account for it, as they considered it to be a positive transgression of the law and custom of the Jews. There is a remarkable addition here in the Codex Bezae, which it will be well to notice. The second verse of the chapter begins thus: - Now Peter had a desire for a considerable time to go to Jerusalem: and having spoken to the brethren, and confirmed them, speaking largely, he taught them through the countries, (i.e. as he passed to Jerusalem,) and, as he met them, he spoke to them of the grace of God. But the brethren who were of the circumcision disputed with him, saying, &c.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 3. Saying, thou wentest into men
uncircumcised , etc.] Into the houses of such, and lodged with them, and familiarly conversed with them: and didst eat with them ; which, according to the traditions of the Jews, were unlawful; (See Gill on Acts 10:28) they say nothing about his preaching to them, and baptizing them, because these were so manifestly agreeable to the commission of Christ, in ( Matthew 28:19 Mark 16:15) and yet how these could be without the other, is not easy to say.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-18 - The imperfect state of human nature strongly appears, when godl persons are displeased even to hear that the word of
God has bee received, because their own system has not been attended to. And we ar too apt to despair of doing good to those who yet, when tried, prove very teachable. It is the bane and damage of the church, to shut ou those from it, and from the benefit of the means of grace, who are no in every thing as we are. Peter stated the whole affair. We should a all times bear with the infirmities of our brethren; and instead of taking offence, or answering with warmth, we should explain ou motives, and show the nature of our proceedings. That preaching i certainly right, with which the Holy Ghost is given. While men are very zealous for their own regulations, they should take care that they d not withstand God; and those who love the Lord will glorify him, when made sure that he has given repentance to life to any fellow-sinners Repentance is God's gift; not only his free grace accepts it, but his mighty grace works it in us, grace takes away the heart of stone, an gives us a heart of flesh. The sacrifice of God is a broken spirit.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

3. Men
uncircumcised (andrav akrobustian econtav). An indignant expression. See Eph. ii. 11.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

11:3 {Thou wentest in} (eiselqes). Direct form, but Westcott and Hort have it eiselqen (he went in), indirect form. So with sunefages (didst eat) and sunefagen (did eat). The direct is more vivid. {Men
uncircumcised} (andras akrobustian econtas). "Men having uncircumcision." It is a contemptuous expression. They did not object to Peter's preaching to the Gentiles, but to his going into the house of Cornelius and eating with them, violating his supposed obligations as a Jew (Hackett). It was the same complaint in principle that the Pharisees had made against Jesus when he ate with publicans and sinners (#Lu 15:12). The Jews had not merely the Mosaic regulations about clean and unclean food, but also the fact that at a Gentile table some of the meat may have been an idol sacrifice. And Peter himself had similar scruples when the vision came to him at Joppa and when he entered the house of Cornelius in Caesarea #10:28). Peter had been led beyond the circumcision party.
