Reciprocal: 2 Chronicles 19:6 - Take Luke 7:2 - centurion's Luke 7:8 - under Acts 5:35 - take Acts 23:17 - one Acts 27:1 - a centurion

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When the centurion heard that,.... The question put by Paul, which strongly suggested that he was a Roman:

he went and told the chief captain; what Paul had said: saying, take heed what thou dost; or "art about to do"; lest some bad consequences should follow; lest he should affront the Roman people and senate, and lose his place, if not incur some corporeal punishment:

for this man is a Roman; and it can never be answered to bind and beat a Roman.
