Acts 10:34

34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

Ver. 34. No respecter of persons ] That is, of their outward state and condition, as country, sex, wealth, wisdom, &c. Outward things neither help nor hurt, please nor displease God, but as they are in a good or bad man; as a cipher by itself is nothing, but a figure being set before it, it increaseth the sum.
