10.38 Qui pertransiit, etc. In Græco additur, per quadraginta dies, non quod quotidie cum illo manducarent et biberent, nam esset contrarium Joanni, qui octo dies interponit quibus eis visus non est, ut tertio manifestaretur, et totidem diebus jejunavit ante mortem, cibo indigens, quod manducavit post resurrectionem jam cibo non indigens. Jejunavit ante mortem, ut nos abstineremus a desideriis hujus sæculi. Manducavit, docens per hoc quod nobiscum est usque ad consummationem sæculi. Jejunium est in certamine, quia qui in agone est, ab omnibus se abstinet. Cibus est in spe pacis, quæ perfecta erit, cum mortale hoc induerit immortalitatem. Nos autem cum viam Domini carpimus, a vanitate sæculi jejunamus, et futura repromissione reficimur. RAB. Per quadraginta dies, non assidue, sed quibusdam vicibus in illo quadragenario dierum numero factis.

Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
10:36-43 Peter repeatedly underscores the importance of the apostolic witnesses to the message of Good News. The apostles ate and drank with Jesus (see Luke 24:41-43) and were eyewitnesses of his resurrection, so they could attest that he had conquered death (see Acts 3:15; 4:33; 13:30-31). The original apostles were chosen in advance to be his witnesses (see 1:12-26); gradually, others such as Paul and Barnabas carried on this powerful preaching and teaching in the name of Jesus Christ (9:15; 14:1-3; 26:16).
The Good News Message
The apostles proclaimed the Good News (or "gospel") message in a definite sequence, with the following elements: (1) The Old Testament promises have been fulfilled in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. (2) God has exalted Jesus by resurrecting him to be the head of the new people of God as the divinely appointed Messiah. (3) The apostles were witnesses of God’s work in Jesus Christ, both as eyewitnesses of his public ministry and resurrection (Acts 2:32; 3:15; 4:33; 5:30-32; 13:30-31) and as his chosen advocates (10:39-43). (4) The proper response to this Good News is repentance and faith (2:38; 3:19; 13:39, 48; 17:30; 20:21; 26:20). (5) The Holy Spirit is promised to those who accept this offer of God’s forgiveness and salvation from sin through Jesus Christ.
This basic message was repeatedly preached to both Jews and Gentiles throughout the Mediterranean world (see 1:8; 9:15), including in the words of Peter and Philip recorded in Acts 2:14-41; 3:12-26; 4:8-12; 5:29-32; 8:4-13, 26-40; and 10:34-43. The same themes also characterize Paul’s preaching (e.g., Acts 13:16-49; 1 Cor 15:1-11).
It is through this powerful message of God’s saving grace that people’s hearts and minds are turned toward him. And the reception of this message ushers in salvation. All people are summoned to repentance from sin and faith in the saving power of Jesus (Acts 4:12; 13:38; 16:30-31)—through his death we can be “made right in God’s sight” (13:39).
