Are there any particular details of interest in the men’s reply?

Actes 10:22 (NEG79)

22 Ils répondirent: Corneille, centenier, homme juste et craignant Dieu, et de qui toute la nation des Juifs rend un bon témoignage, a été divinement averti par un saint ange de te faire venir dans sa maison et d'entendre tes paroles.

The men repeat much of what we know, that has already happened (Acts 10:1–8). One additional detail which they mention is the fact that Cornelius was respected by all the Jewish people. This is evidence that he was actively involved at the synagogue in Caesarea, and known to be supportive of Jewish interests.1
