Who are the brothers from Joppa and why does Peter invite them along?
Actes 10:23 (NEG79)
23Pierre donc les fit entrer, et les logea. Le lendemain, il se leva, et partit avec eux. Quelques-uns des frères de Joppé l'accompagnèrent.
The brothers are male believers living in Joppa. Peter most likely asked them to accompany him so that he could have witnesses to his conduct and to whatever happens when he gets to the home of Cornelius.1 In Acts 11:12 we are told that six men joined him on his journey, along with the visitors.2
